[-- Attachment #1 --] Whenever I do a /stand/sysinstall and upgrade via FTP it completes 100% and says "Congratulations! You must reboot your machine.." Well, I reboot and once I get that first prompt where I have 10 seconds to select a default boot or a custom boot I press enter for the default and FreeBSD can't find my kernal! It doesn't matter if I upgrde 3.1 Rel -> 3.1 Stable, -> 3.2 Rel, or 3.2 Stable - I always get the same problem! Is there something I'm not doing after the upgrade (but before I reboot)? If I CVSUP and makeworld do you think the same thing will still happen? Is it better to CVSUP than to upgrade via binary? I appreciate the help.. This is something I've been fighting for a while now.. Everytime the upgrade fails I completely re-install FreeBSD.
