Well, something exciting happens each time I upgrade FreeBSD. I can't
seem to boot FreeBSD 3.3 from LILO (Caldera 2.3) - panic: cannot mount
root. The error log and lilo.conf files are attached. Would somebody
please help me *and* is there a better place to be looking for answers
to this kind of problem?
