Cheers,
TREV.
Thanks for the link, Trevor. I enabled DDB in the kernel ("options DDB") in
order to prevent the reboot and learned that the VirtualBox kernel module was
causing the hold-up (I use VirtualBox very often, so I load the module at
start-up). I'd forgotten to *rebuild the module after updating the kernel.* I
feel foolish for having forgotten that---I've been using VirtualBox for
years---but all is well now. Thanks for the pointers, and sorry for cluttering
the list with such an inane issue. The quote in my signature seems fitting in
this case. Anyway, take care, all.
This bit me also. I usually do not rebuild port kernel modules until
after a reboot in the new system, and this is the first time that there
was a problem with that. A boot from mfsBSD and temporarily commenting
out vboxdrv_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf was the workaround.
