Think I might be heading towards a full rebuild of my #OpenBSD desktop if I cannot work out why doas sysupgrade -s will not buid a correct /bsd.mp ( /bsd ) ??Tried removing it so a forced sysupgrade would redo it but still it refuses to boot /bsd only /bsd.sp and /bsd.rdI'll give it a few days of running on a single cpu rather than multiple to see if a new snapshot fixes anything and maybe someone will come up with an answer on their bugs mailing list too ? 😒

Yeah it's certainly got me stumped. Fingers crossed and thank you.

@justine Can you still boot your previous (ie before the latest sysupgrade) .mp kernel? If you can, it might tide you over until the issue is resolved.

Does OpenBSD store old kernels somewhere other than / ?

@justine Sounds like you only have the SP KARL objects in place. You can pull the MP ones out of the baseXX.tgz put them in the same parent location as the SP ones and you should be ok after a couple of reboots (relink)

Thanks but could you give examples of locations and so forth please ? When you say SP KARL objects, where are these ?

@justine You will find it in /usr/share/relink/kernelfor SP kernel it will be GENERIC and MP will be GENERIC.MP . The installer decides which one to install based on CPU detection at installation time. Pull the kernel.tgz from base and install:tar zxvf base79.tgz ./usr/share/relink/kernel.tgzmv usr/share/relink/kernel.tgz .tar zxvf kernel.tgz GENERIC.MP -C /usr/share/relink/kernel/Make sure you copy bsd.mp over bsd in root:cp /bsd.mp /bsdReboot a couple of times (leaving a couple of minutes between each reboot for successful relinking).

Thanks Jason I tried that and no difference. Also went with bsd.rd and uograde but still I cannot boot /bsd anymore. Yet /bsd.sp and /bsd.rd are fine. I'm well and truly lost.

I have even deleted /bsd but still this all I get and tried bsd.rd to uograde and it replaces /bsd but it will not boot it. Here is a photo of what I get when trying boot /bsd
