Re: kernel panic

[Matthew Dillon <dillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

    This patch should fix the crashes, but it may still not be able to
    mount root.  I added additional bootverbose debugging so if you can
    compile up a new kernel with this patch in place and boot -v we should
    get better information.

    You should be able to boot your existing kernel by booting -C 
    (e.g. menu option 6 to drop into a boot prompt, then type 'boot -C').
    When it asks for the root mount point try to specify the scsi
    device, either ufs:da0s1a or ufs:da0a being the most likely device.

:hi folks,
:
:situation: dragonfly iso image downloaded, installed on a scsi disk, 
:everything went fine, then reboot and, well, see for yourself

:any help appreciated :-)

:PS: I had to write everything down by hand, I hope I've got all numbers 
:right.
