Re: Laptop boot problem in current with GENERIC GENERIC.hints
Thanks, Warner and Donn. I have been successfully building a new world and kernel every day, except with the latest perl problems the last two days. Today's world is in process and looks like it is going to be successful. This means that everything is up to date. I haven't been able to boot any of the kernels since the configuration changes. My old kernel.works, as suggested in the changes email, is keeping me going. I'm beginning to think about and look for conflicts from very old current stuff that may be obsolete. (I've been running current on this machine for two years with a daily cvsup and make world.) I am also thinking that this may be processor specific. The machine is an older K6-2 at 300 Mhz. I haven't optimized the compilation. As I mentioned before, I wish that were the problem. Thanks very much for the suggestions and help.

If you see this, you haven't even loaded the kernel yet and thus your problem does not come from the kernel. Since we got into the loader, that means that the loader is b0rked. As per this problem, it was due to a stupid error on my part and is fixed in rev 1.19 of /sys/boot/i386/btx/btx.s. Please update your sources and recompile all of /sys/boot/i386.
