Hey, one quick question about this, should I cvsup either to RELENG_5_3 or to RELENG_5 ? I thought RELENG_5 was the right thing to do, but as Im experiencing problems, I will give RELENG_5_3 a try...I will tellyou if that works for me (more news about 4-5 hours later...:) bye On Wed, 16 Feb 2005 16:11:52 +0100, Juan Rodriguez <juan.fco.rodriguez@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello again, > > I've cvsup'ed the kernel sources a few hours ago (RELENG_5), > and I've recompiled. > > Now I cannot boot, it gives me "kernel panic" when booting on > "rlphy0"....this is really very annoying.
