During a recent update of freebsd-arm on an rpi2 I happened to type root@ns1:/boot/msdos # ls bootcode.bin fixup_cd.dat readme start_cd.elf ubldr config.txt fixup_x.dat rpi2.dtb start_x.elf fixup.dat licence.bro start.elf u-boot.bin To prepare for upgrading from r494499, I then typed root@ns1:/boot/msdos # mv rpi2.dtb rpi2.dtb.old root@ns1:/boot/msdos # ls bootcode.bin fixup_cd.dat readme start_cd.elf ubldr config.txt fixup_x.dat rpi2dtb.old start_x.elf fixup.dat licence.bro start.elf u-boot.bin Note that the renamed file has lost the first dot. Next, the new file was copied into position: root@ns1:/boot/msdos # cp /boot/dtb/rpi2.dtb /boot/msdos root@ns1:/boot/msdos # ls bootcode.bin fixup_cd.dat readme start.elf u-boot.bin config.txt fixup_x.dat rpi2.dtb start_cd.elf ubldr fixup.dat licence.bro rpi2dtb.old start_x.elf root@ns1:/boot/msdos # It's happened twice so far, so it's unlikely to be a wetware error 8-) Can anybody tell me what happened? thanks for reading, bob prohaska
