Hi, I've removed all Ethernet NICs from my kernel konfiguration and used only kernel modules. No loopback device is configured. I reconfigured my kernel with at least one Ethernet NIC entry and the loopback device is back. I'm also getting kernel panic if "options BRIDGE" is configured. I'll try to submit more verbose log. regards, Jean Louis Ntakpe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
