Re: zroot won't mount after 9.0-RC2 -> 9.0-RELEASE upgrade

To follow-up, testkernel mounted fine using the procedure from loader.4th(8): set kernel=testkernel unload boot-conf And the OS upgrade is now done, after a few more tweaks have been ironed out (the most interesting of them is a difference between /boot/testkernel and /boot/kernel, which were sup

Re: zroot won't mount after 9.0-RC2 -> 9.0-RELEASE upgrade

So far we've tried: - 'gpart bootcode -b' - load geom_part_gpt.ko - using zpool.cache from the 9.0-RELEASE CD And none of that seems to have had any effect. Additional info: from the CD environment, 'zpool import' reports an old 'tank' pool on devices mfid[2-5]. (The 'zroot' pool uses mfid[0-5]

Re: zroot won't mount after 9.0-RC2 -> 9.0-RELEASE upgrade

Usually when upgrade, I build it in the same machine, 1) csup -L 2 kernel.conf (build src on the new source/version) 2) cd /usr/src, edit the kernel config 3) make buildworld&&make buildkernel 4) make installworld installkernel 5) boot... Using this set of commands I was able to upgrade from
