I solved the problem myself look, I'm not here to bother you guys, I use FreeBSD for years now, and I always used -RELEASE, bought cds & the rest. I've also built several ISDN-routers, all FreeBSD-based. I simply LOVE the FreeBSD project, and, since I have some spare time, I decided to start testing -CURRENT. I also built& modified many PicoBSD installations on a floppy for custom purposes. Even if I am "green" to many subjects, it doesn't mean I am a complete idiot. I can learn, damnit, but I have to start with something. Geez Bye, Wyk'00 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Need help to boot (was : -current hangs during boot)
Hello FreeBSD-hackers. I had my first CVSup-ed source tre d/loaded today. It compiled correctly (make buildworld) and installed correctly (make installworld). But on rebooting the box, the loader fails to find a bootable kernel. It seems my loader.conf got trashed somewhere ... I get the list of the / partition, but the command load kernel gives me the "not found" message. I'm totally green on the subject, please, give me a bit of advice on how can I make the box boot again (or if you have some pointers to web resources, man pages etc.), and where I messed up the whole thing. Thanks guys! Bye, Wyk'00 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
