Hi, It appears that nexboot.conf isn't cleared on boot on sparc64. I tested this with on: FreeBSD ultra.home 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #0: Fri Nov 7 23:59:19 GMT 2003 root@:/usr/src/sys/sparc64/compile/GENERIC sparc64 The nextboot command was invoked with: nextboot -o "-s" -k kernel I have reason to believe that the problem is due to / being read-only on single-user boot (which is a good thing for fsck purposes) so the file cannot be unlinked. When the system boots multi-user though, all appropriate filesystems are mounted rw, and nexboot.conf still doesn't get cleared. Then again, I could be wrong... :) Any ideas?
