Description RishabhJain 2022-06-15 03:04:07 UTC 
when I boot with the wpa_supplicant.conf file in /etc/, the kernel panics with a double fault. If I remove it, the system starts and the ifconfig wlan0 looks proper except the status is not displayed and during startup NIS complains that it cannot find /compat/ndis/rt2860.bin and /compat/ndis/rate.bin. When I run #wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /root/wpa_supplicant.conf nothing changes until I run #ifconfig wlan0 list scan at which time the kernel panics.

@Reporter Please provide additional information, including:

- Complete uname -a output 
- /var/run/dmesg.boot output (as an attachment)
- pciconf -lv output (as an attachment)
- Minimal network configuration files (rc.conf, wpa_supplicant et al) required the reproduce the issue
- Screenshot or text backtrace of the kernel panic (as an attachment)

If you are able to obtain a complete kernel debugging trace, that would be fantastic:
