Note that this method is likely to have problems going from 5.1 to 5.2 on i386 due to ld.so changes, I would strongly recommend people have console access and remote reboot for this particular upgrade. (just i386; amd64 is not affected by that particular change). The problem I'm thinking of is not the one you are seeing though. > From an IP KVM on someone elses computer with Java. > Boots into ddb right after boot> > (with message below) > > However, after I type boot -s to get into single user mode, I get ddb > with a message similar to: > > kernal protection fault trap > Stopped at calibrate_cyclecounter, etc The rest of the information in that message might be useful. And of course other standard information: - How old was the working version? - What are you updating to now? - Which arch? > If I type boot> boot bsd.rd, > the server immediately shuts down and reboots > I am building Java right now. > > Does this sound like a hardware failure or bad upgrade?? Can't say from the information given. Did you save an old kernel/bsd.rd? Does that fail too? > I am going to try upgrade with IP KVM after Java finishes building > Java built but I cannot get firefox35 to work. > I am on latest snapshot for i386 > [Exception...
