indeed. and assuming the message really is from loader, it means, there must be memory corruption - if so, you can check which variables are located close to heap related ones… Also, since you have the working menu, it has to be related to actual loading. Since the loading itself has been working so far, it should be related to lua specific bits which are preparing towards to call load functions. rgds, toomas _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
