Robert,
After update to r195705 my system panic every time i try to create a new
vlan (but i can create a gif interface):
# ifconfig vlan0 create
panic: link_elf_load_file: unexpected progbits type
cpuid = 1
KDB: enter: panic
[thread pid 1023 tid 100136]
(hand transcribed - i've just an usb keyboard here)
My kernel don't have any VIMAGE options.
The system is working flawless before the upgrade.
If you need any/more information about this, just let me know.
Regards,
Luiz
