Mensaje citado por Stephan van Beerschoten <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: | I just finished installing this brand new -CURRENT box. I haven't been | on -CURRENt for a while, and thought about having a peek at 5.x. | | After installing the machine, it boots up fine for a while, but then | something strange happends. | I have not yet been able to determine WHY it happends, much less do I | know WHAT exactly happends. I hope you can help. | The only thing I did was to update my 5.1 install to the latest | -CURRENT. I assume the make world somehow also does something to update | the bootloader, or is this where I went wrong ? | Please read on: | | I installed the Bootloader for my dualboot machine, and when it comes up | during boot: | | F1 ?? | F2 FreeBSD | | and I press F2, it autmatically reboots again. Please note it DID work | yesterday, but somehow my laptops keeps booting on my now. (-CURRENT ? | why?) | | I am dualbooting with WinXP, and I initially grabbed the first 512bytes | from /dev/ad0s2c and dumped them on the XP disk, using the NTLoader to | boot FreeBSD for me. This too worked untill _something_ happened and | selecting FreeBSD caused the machine to spontaniously reboot too. | | Since this happends even before any real kernels are loaded, I cannot | produce any debug output, so any hints on resolving this issue would be | greatly appreciated. | | Please copy me in on any replies, as I am not yet on -current. I will | once this problem is fixed :) | Stephan,
I have exactly the same problem. I'm assuming that this was caused by the changes committed by PHK. See the [HEADSDOWN] swap_pager.c calming down and the Weird reboots from bootmgr or loader threads. He is looking at it now and will probably be committing a fix. ed ------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
