I don't know if to laugh or cry.
I copied base.* and kernel.* from /usr/freebsd-dist on the thumbdrive to /
then using a ten minute forum search results, I succeeded in
from /
gtar -xpJf base.txz
gtar -xpJf kernel.txz   [  tar failed with an error ]
and presto chango 
all I had to do was change v11 to v13 in

Just commit every *working* set of files in /etc & /usr/local/etc
to git or something :-)

I had done a full mergemaster previously...
It gets stranger.
I tried etcmerge, it could not do any useful work [ no conflicts found iirc 
]
I tried etcupdate, it could neither  [ no /usr/src on the .img file 
filesytem  iirc ]

I found a wpa_supplicant line that creates wlan0 but run0 never gets beyond
'no carrier'
.
then I started Xorg and it worked... so maybe I just forgot to copy the new 
kernel over,

but then why would the newer binaries and  .ko files be working?

Also, when trying the install of the dec 10 .img again, it failed in a 
second or so

.
When copying several files I missed in /etc over, I accidently converted the
system to a 'live cd'... in other words, the system boots normally [ except 
the

run0 not starting and other error messages ] but after login I am presented
with the install menu even thought the thumbdrive is not present.  And get
a real boot completed by choosing 'live CD '
 which is also off topic though...

Maybe, if new code was in wlan0 or *rc* 
or wpa_supplicant or /etc or run0, but I suspect it is some problem I
caused by not doing a proper upgrade.

I have a Dec 2 i386-*-freebsd (typing on it now), which uses wlan0
over a lowly D-Link DWL-G630.  Works fine.  The change causing
you problems appears to have occurred after Dec 2.

Updating current i386 broke wlan0...

2020-12-11 Thread Jeffrey Bouquet
Longtime BSD current user, due to several constraints I had to update from a 
recent dec 10 image in
a quasi-piecemeal fashion.  Fixed all issues  [ I think ] From 11-Current to 
13-Current except 
  service netif onestart wlan0 up
no longer completes. 

/etc/rc.d/netif set_rcvar_obsolete: not found
eval: wlan_up: not found
starting wpa_supplicant
/etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant: WARNING:  failed to start...
starting dhclient
eval: wlan0: not found
/etc/rc.d/dhclient: WARNING: failed to start dhclient
/etc/rc.d/netif:  WARNING: $ipv6_enable is not set properly, see rc.conf(5)
starting network wlan0
eval: check_startmsgs: not found
eval: afexits: not found
..
Piecemeal update was needed because make toolchain and make buildworld
failed each early on.
.
I have the freebsd-manifest base.* etc files but am hesitant to overwrite 
system files
rendering the i386 system less usable than now, as well as unschooled in the
syntax for same.
...
Hoping that just a few files into /etc I may not have thought of can fix
wpa_supplicant...
...
other dmesg errors:  [rc.d...] 
list_vars: not found
sort_list: not found
check_kern_features: not found
set_rcvar_obsolete: not found
.
Any insights appreciated.
