I never said I could not compile a new kernel, I said I could not install the OS. Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't the installation of the OS precede the creation of a new kernel? Furthermore, the screen just rolls away filling up with the error message ad infinitum. By the way, as I understand it, creating a custom kernel nullifies the use of "freebsd update". Wow, things just keep getting better & better. What I cannot understand is that FreeBSD knows it has a problem, one not shared by any other OS as far as I have been able to ascertain, and I have done a lot of research, and they refuse to fix it. The problem did not exist before version 12.x, so it is not like they never were able to get it right. --=20 Jerry --Sig_/WHW1JDuI5pDItoHrV872SfB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGzBAEBCAAdFiEELeCiu2K+9VmEYYgTgHBP8gv9FXcFAmBVz9gACgkQgHBP8gv9 FXcncQv+PG+NbEMimEx8MQikuswEph9KbBKtzXSpxma7LxgsMwbA/t/sk6QNpbpb ssXm+AN8HZsuiqiRSZH+rUSFIUMGSk6nwGrqVEQ107FcKgyjKZgzRL6YJtMK+z81 ToaXpQw6zABagtOLgKso2DfxWwYJ3aCsLZMdv+QCTVN+uW/Jcpnu1GMvL7eflxKM WbxNE39WWGoMyxRvo7cm6lXtDQrObauYFvENrB7BGviOSEjSJJzirql/yyuPya82 rtqAL7nfeqhe/e7GGArt/g2+xLF+3nglDDA3UFQpOv3wNp+2I4Ady1T5FbVyz5gU cJpZEOaE3RCI/ddEJ7QmxVw8t7/fezC9ShqJqRmUNRwzVOulP3NcKAgkE1x9VSCY UxTXiUEpNHKaPCjZrGp6fWMhMD08LVc7aqULzkdivXivVW5kPivvJ5tr+8kKL2e0 C+SdzESyHF6UzZgzNuXBA9Keg6FrzzWjKOC9+4HdFhSrQ2vksbiBM1qBACdBNhHJ qTCrbcTd =jmih -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/WHW1JDuI5pDItoHrV872SfB--
