Yes it is compressed. > http://jdc.parodius.com/freebsd/pxeboot_serial_install_7.html#step7 Thanks much for this. I did a simple test, I rebuilt a DVD that wasn't booting to use a lower level of compression (gzip -9 to gzip -6) on mfsroot without changing anything else. This caused it to boot normally. I'm not sure it's conclusive evidence, but it certainly looks like a weak datapoint supporting this kernel bug being the source of my problem. Is this problem fixed in 8.0 or by a patch? -- Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - d...@jetcafe.org >>> The opinions expressed above are entirely my own <<< Suggested definition of "sin": Trading aliveness for survival. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
