I rebuilt the kernel while keeping the existing kernel, installing to /boot/kernelre on the USB stick.
Unfortunately all the modules were redundantly rebuilt. Maybe I should have had "-D NO_MODULES" instead of "-DNO_MODULES"? I typed "unload" at the loader prompt, then "boot /boot/kernelre/kernel". I had the same problem as before with dhclient, looked like nothing different. Lines in /var/run/dmesg.boot relating to re0 were: re0: <RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E/F PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xe000-0xe0ff mem 0xf7d04000-0xf7d04fff,0xf7d00000-0xf7d03fff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci2 re0: Using 1 MSI-X message re0: Chip rev. 0x2c800000 re0: MAC rev. 0x00100000 miibus0: <MII bus> on re0 rgephy0: <RTL8169S/8110S/8211 1000BASE-T media interface> PHY 1 on miibus0 rgephy0: none, 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 10baseT-FDX-flow, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 100baseTX-FDX-flow, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-master, 1000baseT-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX-master, 1000baseT-FDX-flow, 1000baseT-FDX-flow-master, auto, auto-flow re0: Ethernet address: d4:3d:7e:97:17:e2 Tom _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
