Thank you. I commented out above two lines from /etc/make.conf and did build/installkernel, build/installworld again (a little superfluous maybe). So, the loader and the kernel must be built with default options. The result was same. Loading new kernel with the new loader reboots the machine. The CPU is an athlon (CPU lines from dmesg were as follows). I do not remember what was the chipset now; CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1600+ (1403.19-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = "AuthenticAMD" Id = 0x662 Stepping = 2 Features=0x383fbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CM OV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR,SSE> AMD Features=0xc0480800<SYSCALL,MP,MMX+,3DNow+,3DNow> _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
