Hi,
on a freshly cvsupped source tree, i notice that picobsd images
with a preloaded MD_ROOT cannot boot anymore: the kernel goes up
to this stage:
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0c
setrootbyname failed
ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp
Root mount failed: 6
Manual root filesystem specification:
<fstype>:<device> Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
eg. ufs:da0s1a
? List valid disk boot devices
<empty line> Abort manual input
mountroot>
at which point you can proceed by specifying "ufs:md0" as the root
path, and everything works fine.
It certainly used to work (though i do not remember if the root path
came out as md0c or just md0) up to a couple of months ago, roughly.
Does this ring any bell on what might have changed more or less recently
that affects this ? Who builds up the '/dev/md0c' name for the root
filesystem ?
thanks
luigi
