Hi,

Hei!

I have been so unfortunate to be left with a completely unusable
system after updating to RELENG_6 from RELENG_5.


I read that the path was to RELENG_6_0_0_RELEASE and then to stable. I
just finished upgrading 2 machines that way.

I am quite sure that I followed the step from the handbook correctly,
but as mentioned the system is unbootable.

Did you copy the 6.0 GENERIC config file into the one your buildkernel
make uses?


Think I saw some others reported problems with the new acpi on some hardware.
Try to boot without it, "safe mode" in the bootmenu, I think.
You may find some more in the archives for both this list and freebsd-stable.

The error when trying to boot the new kernel makes the system reboots
after 15 seconds, so I haven't had the opportunity to write that one
down. However, the error message from when trying: "unload", "boot
/boot/kernel.old/kernel" I was able to copy down in full (see
bottom).

You should only load the 5-stable kernel and the boot -s. You have a
mixed kernel and userland. You can't expect kernel.old and your
6-stable userland to work.


If I try to unload linux.ko by ' set linux_load="NO" ', it goes a bit
further. I can only see "acpi.ko: could not finalize loading" flash
by, and several "PNP0303 can't assign..." error messages before it
mounts, it finishes to load ipfw2 and then suddenly it says

'Warning: Device driver " ' then nothing more on the line, then a
similar error message to the one at bottom follows. (page fault).
Reboots after 15 seconds.


I really hope someone knows what this is all about - I have no idea
why this is happening. Further I cannot understand why kernel.old
doesn't work - after all I've used that kernel for 6 months without
any issues. Mind that this is the GENERIC kernel, and it was compiled
with unmodified conf.


But that was for a 5-stable userland. Now, your userland is 6.0.

Hope for quick reply,

Best regards,
