Currently running 4.6-PRERELEASE. Abit BE6-II motherboard with 12/01 BIOS. 384M RAM. Trident 8M AGP video card. Cheap NIC (dc0). Promise FastTrak 100 Ultra ATA/100 RAID card. 4x30G IDE drives attached to the FastTrak card. No IDE devices attached to the on-board IDE interfaces. The FastTrak is mostly being used as an ATA/100 card, but in order for the system to boot off the primary master drive on the card, I have to define a one-disk striped volume. The 4.5-RELEASE GENERIC kernel sees this striped volume as ar0 and the drives as ad4 - ad7. >Description: I'm tracking RELENG_4 with cvsup. On my current machine, I installed 4.5-RELEASE and upgraded with cvsup. The last time I did an update was maybe two or three days ago. I did a buildworld, installworld, buildkernel, and installkernel. No problems. When I boot to the new 4.6-PRERELEASE kernel, the kernel does not detect the ar0 or ad4 devices and, since the root parition is on that device (ad4s1a), the system cannot boot. If I boot to the loader, unload the new kernel and load the 4.5-GENERIC kernel, everything works. >How-To-Repeat: Boot the 4.6-PRERELEASE kernel built using the GENERIC config. >Fix: No fix yet. Just boot into the 4.5-RELEASE kernel. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
