Oh how interesting. I missed that in your last message. > > When you updated the other 4 systems "with same sources" did you mean > the same cvsup file, or the exact copy of the source? I used same cvsup file from same cvsup mirror at same time... sys/boot/zfs/zfsimpl.c have same version. Only one difference for this system - it uses SAS drives, another systems have IDE and SATA.

All checksums are different... If possible, I will try to boot the system with all available zfsloaders: - old from this system - again new from this system - old from another system - new from another system -- MATPOCKuH _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
