Upgrading to freebsd 5.4 STABLE from 5.3 kernel panic, what do i do to get data back?
Hello list! I have been successfully been running 5.3 for a couple of weeks when i decided i should upgrade to 5.4 stable. Now the make world went fine except mergemaster complaining it couldn't find usr/src/etc or something similar. I made make buildkernel wich also went fine. But when I booted into my upgraded system I got kernel panic, so I made another restart and this time it went ok. Yestoday I removed SCSI card and DAT tape and NIC so I can have them in my main server. Now i cant get past this: freebsd 5.4-stable kernel trap 12 with interupts disabled Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x9 fault code = supervisor write, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8 :0xc077c073 stack pointer = 0x10 :0xc0c20d00 frame pointer = 0x10 :0xc0c20d0c code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 () trap number = 12 panic: page fault Uptime: 1s So my attack-plan is to reinstall system from scratch and never do make buildworld & make buildkernel again, BUT, I have a whole lot of information remaining on both disks that are in right now. From what I could see in the installer, fbsd installer wont let me "install in a different directory with filesystem still intact" like windows doesor does it? Please help! :) // Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

UPDATE: I have now done what has been advised, to do boot kernel.old at the boot loader prompt, and I get the same error...running out of options here... :/ Please help! :) // Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Get into the boot loader prompt and type boot "kernel.old", this way you'll boot the old 5.3 kernel. Once there, update your src tree and perform the upgrade following the instructions in the 20.4.1 chapter of the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
