Hi, on a freshly cvsupped source tree, i notice that picobsd images with a preloaded MD_ROOT cannot boot anymore: the kernel goes up to this stage: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0c setrootbyname failed ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp Root mount failed: 6 Manual root filesystem specification: <fstype>:<device> Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype> eg. ufs:da0s1a ? List valid disk boot devices <empty line> Abort manual input mountroot> at which point you can proceed by specifying "ufs:md0" as the root path, and everything works fine. It certainly used to work (though i do not remember if the root path came out as md0c or just md0) up to a couple of months ago, roughly. Does this ring any bell on what might have changed more or less recently that affects this ? Who builds up the '/dev/md0c' name for the root filesystem ? thanks luigi ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO, luigi@iet.unipi.it .
