next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
i'm attempting to create a stripped down implementation of FreeBSD
6.0-RELEASE and have noticed some changes in how the loader loads mfsroot
between 4.x and 6.x.
/boot/loader.rc has:
set console=comconsole
set hw.ata.atapi_dma="1"
set hw.ata.ata_dma="1"
set hw.ata.wc="0"
load /kernel
load -t mfs_root /mfsroot
boot
however, upon a boot, i see the following:
/kernel text=0x4511b4 data=0x7cc94+0x33710 syms=[0x4+0x54750+0x4+0x696b2]
ACPI autoload failed - no such file or directory

i've judiciously ignored the SETFEATURES error on ad2 as it's a CF-IDE
device and mounts perfectly fine from the command line. however, the mkdirs
are failing due to the fact that mfsroot is mounted read only. using the
same loader.rc commands in 4.x and 5.x seemed to load mfsroot read/write.
how does one specify a read/write mount of mfsroot in 6.0 in the bootloader ?
