RELENG_8 finds the drive and the BIOS partition (slice). It fails on the same hardware that boots 7.2-STABLE just fine. It drops me into the menu to manually configure the root partition, but doesn't accept either the native device names for the root partition (/dev/ad0s1a) or a geom label (/dev/label/root). The list of GEOM devices only includes ad0 and ad0s1. The disk isn't dangerously dedicated, but I only added geom labels to the partitions last night. The glabels work fine under 7.2-STABLE, but RELENG_8 seems to ignore them. I've attached output from fdisk, bsdlabel, and glabel in case I'm misinterpreting them. I haven't gotten a dmesg yet, because I need to get this kernel on a memory stick to do so. I'll be able to run more diagnostics under 8.0 tonight. Any ideas? --=20 Ted Faber http://www.isi.edu/~faber PGP: http://www.isi.edu/~faber/pubkeys.= asc Unexpected attachment on this mail?
