Cannot boot with newly compiled kernel, or kernel.old after upgrading to RELENG_6
Hi, I have been so unfortunate to be left with a completely unusable system after updating to RELENG_6 from RELENG_5. I am quite sure that I followed the step from the handbook correctly, but as mentioned the system is unbootable. 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). 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. Hope for quick reply, Best regards, Torgeir Hoffmann -- Error message -- link_elf: symbol VOP_READDIR_APV undefined KLD file linux.ko - could not finalize loading. kernel trap 12 with interups disabled Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode. fault virtual address = 0x8 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc060bdff stack pointer = 0x10:0xc1020d24 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc1020d24 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xf, type x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processlr elfags = resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 () trap number = 12 panic: page fault uptime: 1s ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Cannot boot with newly compiled kernel, or kernel.old after upgrading to RELENG_6
Hi, thanks a lot for quick reply. Did you copy the 6.0 GENERIC config file into the one your buildkernel make uses? No, actually I didn't. From what I could see on http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html, I didn't think it was necessary. 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 understand you correctly, that would mean that even if I haven't yet done installworld, my userland is still 6.0? I'm terribly sorry if I wasn't clear on that point. Thanks for the boot command - it worked very well. I thought I'd try to cvsup the sourcetree to RELENG_6_0 instead now, and then try to recompile. Is that a good idea? I was thinking, since installworld hasn't been done yet?

I always do the buildworld, make kernel, boot single user and installworld and run mergemaster. I have had kernels that would immediately panic and the boot to single user mode is to catch them. You have a new user called _dhcp that needs to be added to group and master.passwd. Then, you have what seems like 100's of files that need to be updated using mergemaster.

I cvsup to 6.0-release, copied GENERIC to RUBY. Ruby is the computer that I was upgrading. I cd'ed into /usr/obj and rm -rf *. You don't need to bother about changing the flags. /usr/obj/usr and descendants just disappeared. After the cvsup, I cd'ed into /usr/src and did a make cleandir 2 times. This was all before I did my first buildworld. After, I finished the buildworld and kernel, I tried to do the boot -s but right now FreeBSD does not handle the Netgear GA311 1000baseT NIC properly. If I didn't do a power down in the transition it would panic. It isn't reseting the NIC properly. Windows XP does and FreeBSD doesn't. FreeBSD handles a power up just fine. Doing a power down and then booting to FreeBSD 6-stable only adds 20-30 seconds to the overall boot time. It is not that irritating :). Ruby is my source machine. I do port builds on it and create packages. Not all packages will install and work properly. For example, KDE has never upgraded properly with packages that I build on ruby and move to my other computers. Right now, if I build packages on ruby and use them, kmail disappears. I use kmail 100% except for yahoo, gmail and hotmail. Both Yahoo and Hotmail are webmail. For the gmail account I use mozilla-thunderbird. Rain and shine thunderbird works. Even in the middle of the upgrade to 6-stable, I could use thunderbird. Kmail is part of a system and thunderbird is a standalone product. I would be surprised if thunderbird didn't work. Updating my ports was a bit confusing. Openssl demands to be changed to openssl-stable. I finally let it. I found that later it would upgrade to the current version. Just ignore it for starters. Ports with problems - Audio on FreeBSD 5-6 is a toss up. It doesn't matter which port you use. I have 3 computers with Creative sound cards and 5.1 speakers. The current emu10k1 drivers use the speakers behind me. It is kind of bothering to me to listen to audio when the sound is playing behind me :). It doesn't really affect me because I always have one of the computers on my kvm switch running XP and XP plays the audio out of the right speakers, i.e., the front ones :). If I use Windows Media Player, I can let my friends know who I am listenting to. So, I am sitting here listening to Mi sangre tour de Juanes on XP and working on my FreeBSD machines. FWIW, the cd has suround sound effects and having them come out of the correct speakers is not spatially confusing :). With the exception of a confused sound setup, I have had no problems with 6-stable after I got all of my ports upgraded to 6-stable.
