I need to roll back my system to main-n271000-5654b42142e1. After an update of the system today, it crashes in network startup and I need to get back to a working system while I try to figure out why it won't boot. Probably by bisecting the source. Right now, I am getting an error from 'geli attach' of: geli: Invalid class name 'eli'. This is probably the result of kernel and world not being in sync as I had to restore the boot/modules directory to the state of the old kernel. I had assumed that the version was a hash that I could use to get my kernel and world back to a working state. I could restore from backup, but would like to get back to the exact system of the kernel.old. I am just a git newby and trying to use 5654b42142e1 reports that the hash is not found. I'lladmit that I'm lost! -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683
