To do that, reboot again. Press the space bar (or something other than enter) so you get into the boot-loader. If you have the newer boot-screen, there is a menu option which will get you into the boot loader. Once you are in the boot-loader, type: unload load /boot/kernel.old/kernel boot That should get you up on the old kernel. Assuming that works, the first thing you should do is: cd /boot mv kernel kernel-BAD mv kernel.old kernel -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad_at_gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad_at_freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih_at_rpi.eduReceived on Mon Feb 16 2004 - 13:49:05 UTC
