If you do 'boot foo' at the loader prompt you get /boot/foo;/boot/kernel;/boot/modules. It is arguably broken that the old /boot/kernel is still in the list, but that bug should be fixed in the loader, not here. However, I've never had a problem with kldload doing the wrong thing when using 'boot foo'. Do you have an actual use case that is broken? Oh, and if you use 'nextboot -k foo' or set 'kernel=foo' in loader.conf then it will DTRT. However, I would expect this script to be equivalent to a for loop of 'kldload foo', but now it isn't since you are using a divergent algorithm. That violates POLA IMO. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
