Bug ID: 217761
Summary: FreeBSD/powerpc64 head r313561's /boot/loader cannot
boot the kernel from NFS
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: powerpc
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I installed FreeBSD/powerpc64 head r313561 (snapshot of 20170210) and there is
something wrong with its bootloader.
I tried to net boot the installer. The configuration of isc-dhcp is:
host powerpc {
hardware ethernet xxx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx;
fixed address 192.168.0.15;
next-server 192.168.0.10;
filename "loader";
option root-path "192.168.0.10:/exports/FreeBSD/ppc64/12c-20170210";
}
tftp configuration in inetd.conf is:
tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/local/libexec/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s
/exports/FreeBSD/ppc64/12c-20170210/boot
and 192.168.0.10:/exports/FreeBSD/ppc64/12c-20170210 is NFS mountable with full
system
copied from disc1.iso.
I tried to boot from openfirmware console
> boot eboot:,loader
the file loader is retrieved via tftp and executed, but it says it cannot find
the file 'kernel'.
I replaced /boot/loader with the loader of 11.0-RELEASE. It successfully booted
/boot/kernel/kernel,
and I managed to install.
