Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Tuesday night I installed the newest TTCP patch and built a new kernel. Something must have happened to my disk before I rebooted with this kernel; when the system came back up a number of files had been changed to random device inodes and none of the 3 slices would fsck cleanly. Since then, whenever I try to boot a new kernel, I get the following messages: /dev/sd0s1a on /: specified device does not match mounted device Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted. Then I end up in single-user mode. The part that is really confusing is that I can boot the 2.2.6 kernel.GENERIC with no problem; I using it right now. I re-installed the ssys package from the 2.2.6 CD-ROM and recompiled my kernel just to be sure I hadn't corrupted a source file, and I've searched the entire system for wayward device files, to no avail. The boot still fails in the same manner. WTF? Any help, or should I just clean the system and start over? -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
