It's resloved, she edit the /boot/loader instead of /boot/loader.conf fix:
if someone has freebsd release as you, let him upload it to a site, with the name loader.x then boot your computer with the fixit cd of freebsd (Disk 2) Configure your Network go to shell, then cd /mnt mkdir fixbsd mount /dev/ad0s1 /mnt/fixbsd (if you don't have freebsd installed on the first fixed disk or something else like other partitions then figure out which partition the / mountpoint has.) then cd fixbsd fetch (location where your friend has uploaded his bootloader) cp loader.x loader replace it then your set you can bootup normal. If you have 5.3-RELEASE... my loader is located at http://www.raisingfire.net/freebsd/loader.x (founded this trick out with a friend of mine who messed up her bootloader hehe kinda mistake, can happen to everyone if they are logged in as root) With kind regards, Nexohrion > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Tue, 8 Mar 2005, Webmaster Shizukana.net wrote: > >> Can somebody help me? >> >> I've got a problem with my bootloader and i dont know how to fix it. >> If I boot my pc, it stops loading, it says: >> >> Invalid Format. >> >> FreeBSD/i386-Release 5.3 >> default: 0:ad(0,a)/kernel >> boot: >> >> and it is in the /boot/loader >> how can i fix this? >> is there a disk to boot to prompt, so i can mount the / of my freebsd >> system and update the /boot/loader file with the one of someone else? >> >> and ifso, how can i do this with the mount commands? >> >> thanks! >> Nexohrion > > Yes, more then likely you compiled things or have used the iso image > for the wrong architecture.
