Summary of Officially Sanctioned Update Procedure:

Depart from the above procedure at your own risk. Thankyou :-)

Been there, done that, to the last letter ('kay, I didn't type the "(drop into single-user..." part). Fresh install from 4.0-Release, CVSup'ed after the binutils were declared clean. The system panics when loading linux.ko.

It seems to me there is something not working as intended.

Can any helpful soul look at the stable build sequence shown and determine why it crashes during loading linux.ko?

Yes. After the above procedure, your new kernel will be installed under a different name, equal to the name of the kernel configuration file. When booting, the old /kernel will get loaded, and that one is incompatible with your newer modules.

There are two ways around this:

1) Edit /boot/loader.conf and add the line kernel="XYZZY", where XYZZY is the name of your kernel. 2) See LINT (it's still LINT on -stable, right? :) for an option that let you override the name, so that XYZZY will install kernels named "kernel" again.

<jkh> _DES: The Book of Bruce has only one sentence in it, and it says "the actual directives of my cult are left as an exercise for the reader. Good luck." <EE> jkh: does it really include the 'good luck' part? <jkh> EE: OK, I made that part up. <jkh> EE: I figured it should sound a bit more cheery than how Bruce initially dictated it to me.
