I think the problem is elsewhere: as indicated below, I can't see *anything*. There should be kernel, kernel.old, kernel.GENERIC, and kernel.GENERIC.old, but boot <whatever> always generates:

can't find '<whatever>'

John Reynolds suggested that I might have something odd in /boot/loader.conf; it's quite possible, but it seems more likely that I've somehow made / unreachable (??).

According to Kevin Oberman (July 25, 2000):

| > ok ls | > open '/' failed: no such file or directory | | You say you did a buildkernel. Did you specify a kernel name? If not, | you can try GENERIC. | | Boot to the boot prompt ("ok") and enter "boot GENERIC -s". That | should load and boot a kernel named 'GENERIC'. If you specified a | kernel name to buildkernel and installkernel, use that name in place | of 'GENERIC'.
