I boot from dvd and mount /dev/wd0a then edit /boot.cfg . Then I remove these three lines. load=npf load=npf_ext_log load=npf_ext_normalize That's it. It boots. But how can I re-enable NPF in NetBSD 8? Thank you, -- Gua Chung Lim "UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity." -- Dennis M. Ritchie
