where is new bsd.rd placed? Is it on /. I placed it somewhere else so it is not confused with the 4.4 bsd.rd
I remember that bsd.rd is checksummed against some files and there possibly would be a discrepancy leading to restart. floppy boot instead? network driver bce has been commented out from GENERIC, so your network won't work. You will have to compile kernel. http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC.diff?r1= 1.692;r2=1.693;f=h On Mon, Feb 7, 2011 at 8:56 AM, Tomas <s.to...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey there all on the misc, > > I am having problems booting into bsd.rd on my machine.
