--00000000000025aa2b05d83f16d8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" I did the normal upgrade process described in the handbook - buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, reboot, installworld, etc. iwn works fine after stable/13 installkernel and reboot (which is at that point releng/13.0 world with stable/13 kernel. In fact I am sending this email via iwn while using stable/13 kernel. It is only after installing stable/13 world and rebooting that iwn can no longer scan. I am happy to re-install stable/13 world and produce more debugging info. Just let me know what would be helpful. Thanks, John On Wed, Feb 16, 2022 at 7:46 PM Bjoern A.
