Hi,All Yestoday, I'd upgraded my box to FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE, but I found it seems the Embedded MD_ROOT doesn't work fine.
My kernel config: =============================================================== machine i386 cpu I486_CPU cpu I586_CPU cpu I686_CPU ident MINI device pf device pflog options ALTQ options ALTQ_RED # To statically compile in device wiring instead of /boot/device.hints #hints "GENERIC.hints" # Default places to look for devices. options SCHED_4BSD # 4BSD scheduler options INET # InterNETworking options FFS # Berkeley Fast Filesystem options PSEUDOFS options MD_ROOT # MD is a potential root device options MD_ROOT_SIZE=4096 # 4M options COMPAT_43 # Compatible with BSD 4.3 [KEEP THIS!] options COMPAT_FREEBSD4 # Compatible with FreeBSD4 options NO_SWAPPING device apic # I/O APIC # Bus support.

I'll be very appreciate! -- __o _ \<_ Plan9 (_)/(_) -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://mymail.bsdmail.com Powered by Outblaze _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
