Just did a doas sysupgrade -s on my #OpenBSD desktop as i do most days and today when it rebooted it fails to boot. Yet if I just type b followed by enter it then boots correctly ???
I'm at a loss what that last update on the -current` snapshot did ??
kern.version=OpenBSD 7.9-current (GENERIC.MP) #475: Thu May 14 12:34:48 MDT 2026
deraadt@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP
It won't boot by itself when I normally hit enter at the boot prompt before. Now I enter b and it boots ???
