Hello,
    I've got a 5.2 box that on the very rare times i have to reboot it
occationally, not always but enough to be a concern, it can not find it's
root filesystem, and i'm dropped at a loader prompt. At the loader prompt i
issue "reboot" the box does so again and this time it boots completely. I am
at a loss to explain this and wonder if anyone has seen anything similar?
Thanks.
Dave.
