https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D265472 Bug ID: 265472 Summary: /boot/loader: lua autoboot timer restarts if menu password is set Product: Base System Version: 13.1-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: crahman@gmail.com Created attachment 235517 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D235517&action= =3Dedit After interrupting the autoboot timeout, prevent it from restarting. In the lua loader, if one sets a password in loader.conf, the autoboot_delay timer will start before the menu is displayed. One can interrupt the autob= oot and bring up the menu by entering a keyboard character before the timer expires. If this is done a prompt for the password is displayed. Entering the passw= ord will bring up the menu, but the timer will again start and another keyboard character must be entered or autoboot will abort the menu and boot the syst= em. This is unexpected and not useful. A patch to correct the problem is attached. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
