Hi,
My config is:
wd0 : MSDOS (40 MB) + FreeBSD-stable (/ /var /usr) + booteasy
wd1 : FreeBSD-current (/ /var /usr) + booteasy
sd0 : FreeBSD-current (/ /var /usr data) + booteasy
sd1 : FreeBSD (data)
My wd1 is dying, so I'm switching to sd0 as my bootable -current drive.
I disabled wd1 in the bios to be able to boot from sd0, and changed my
kernel to
config kernel root on sd0 swap on wd0 and sd0 #dumps on wd0
^^^was wd1 here
controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr
disk wd0 at wdc0 drive 0
#controller wdc1 at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 vector wdintr
#disk wd1 at wdc1 drive 0
^^^^removed wdc1 and wd1
If I let him boot, it tries 1:sd(1,a)/kernel and fails at
`change root to sd1a'. Entering 1:sd(0,a)/kernel is ok.
How can I do this in the kernel config file?
