Dear all,
I've tried to upgrade my FreeBSD server from 6.3-RELEASE to 7.0-RELEASE,
but it is failed to boot after make kernel KERNCONF=GENERIC.
I didn't modify any file at /usr/src/sys/i386/conf, it was all default.
After done make kernel and reboot, system stop at:
Timecounters tick every 1.000 msec
ad0: 38166MB <Seagate ST340016A 3.75> at ata0-master UDMA100
I can't boot in single mode, but I can boot in safe mode, and it showed:
Manual root filesystem specification:
<fstype>:<device> Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
eg. ufs:da0s1a
? List valid disk boot devices
<empty line> Abort manual input
I type "?" for list, but it only show acd0 and fdc0, "ufs:ad0s1a" or
"ufs:/dev/ad0s1a" are not working
I can boot with /boot/kernel.old now (6.3-RELEASE), I rebuilt kernel
again and again, but still not work.
I check the difference between old GENERIC on 6.3-RELEASE and new
GENERIC on 7.0-RELEASE, it has not difference besides new add in
7.0-RELEASE.
Is any one can help me? I don't want to reinstall...because I don't have
install cd...
And sorry for my poor English, thank you for reading!
Regards,
