I just upgraded a laptop from FreeBSD 4.4 to 4.6 using the Upgrade function in sysinstall (ftp option). The upgrade seemed to go without a hitch (except that the ftp session bombed overnight and I had to restart it ... which worked). At conclusion, the message said something like installation successful, /etc recovered, time to reboot. I issued 'shutdown now -r'. The screen froze partway out of X so I killed the volts and turned the machine back on. I now get: can't load 'kernel' can't load 'kernel.old' no bootable kernel ok which is clearly not OK. 1. What happened? 2. How do I fix? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
