My /boot directory contains: bob@obiwan-p3 /boot> ls -l total 294 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 4 09:59 boot0 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 4 09:59 boot1 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 7680 Apr 4 09:59 boot2 -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 131072 Apr 4 09:59 loader -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 11462 Mar 27 21:12 loader.help -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 131072 Mar 27 21:12 loader.old The Apr 4 09:59 timestamp was the time of my make installworld. Is there somewhere else that it might be picking up an older version of the loader?
