Yes, my new loader (built as part of a buildworld/buildkernel Tuesday morning) complains about something or the other not being a multiple of blocksize. It then panics and only offers me the option to reboot (effectively rendering the machine unbootable). Luckily, I was able to boot from a 5.2 CD-ROM (the latest I had lying around here), went into "fixit" mode, renamed loader to loader.new and loader.old to loader, and the system came back up normally on the next boot. Anyone have any idea what's going on with this? -- Conrad J. Sabatier <conrads_at_cox.net> -- "In Unix veritas"Received on Thu May 19 2005 - 01:36:23 UTC
