Automatic dual kernel cd boot amd64/i386
Hello. Is it possible to get bootable cd with auto selectable amd64/i386 boot? For instance , i have a bootable cd with two kernels: * first is located in /boot/kernel.amd64 * second in /boot/kernel.i386 loader.conf has line /kernel=kernel.amd64/ When it boots on amd64 incompatible hardware it start loading the kernel and returns to the loader prompt showing error Long mode not supported or something like that. Is it possible to configure loader.conf or any other place to get automatically started with second kernel.i386 from that point instead of waiting for user interaction?

Dual kernel
Hi Is it possible to have two kernels and at the boot time I want to select which kernel I want? I have two kernel code, one with IPRC (Modified kernel) and other standard kernel of 5.1. Every time I want to switch kernel I need to recompile the kernel. Can I select kernel during boot time? I appreciate your help. -- Zahirul Haque, RA School of Computer Science and Engineering University of New South Wales Tel: (02) 9385 6093 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, man boot. KeS ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
