Hi all!
I'm new in these parts, but not new to *nix. I'm trying to upgrade a
system with FreeBSD 5.4 to 7.2.
I've gotten the pxeboot to work, but somehow the network interface isn't
seen by the installer.
loader.rc:
===========
include /boot/loader.4th
include /boot/beastie.4th
\ Reads and processes loader.conf variables
start
load /boot/kernel/kernel
load -t mfs_root /boot/mfsroot
set vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:/dev/md0c"
boot
loader.conf:
============
mfsroot_load="YES"
mfsroot_type="mfs_root"
mfsroot_name="/boot/mfsroot"
if_bge_load="yes"
I added the if_bge line at that seems to be the module used on 5.4.
Any other leads?
Thanks in advance
Bruce
