10-stable does not boot on Dell E1505 any more

2013-09-14 Thread Warren Block

This is an older Dell E1505, Core 2 but does not have AHCI.

r255569 does not find /dev/ada0s2a and ? at the mountroot prompt 
shows no devices.


r255451 from September 10 boots fine.

Also possibly relevant is that after successfully building and 
installing world and kernel, /boot/kernel.old is not being replaced. 
This is good at present because the old kernel still works, but 
shouldn't kernel.old be replaced on installkernel?

Yeah, i just got nicked by it in a XEN host same error i booted
kernel.old and made a copy of kernel.old - kernel.good just to get it to
boot again. guess it sits till someone fixes/resolves/reverts the naughty
code. :)

I've had the same problem after I updated my kernel today. I tracked it
down to the hyperv drivers that were added in r255524. Without the device
hyperv line in my kernconf the system boots fine again.

The 'device hyperv' in the GENERIC kernel was removed in r255574,
pending further fixes.

Interesting!  Notice this fresh commit:
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revisionsortby=daterevision=255574

A custom kernel without the hyperv device works.  Thanks!___
