I have installed a Transcend 512MB IDE module(http://www.transcendusa.com/products/ModDetail.asp?ModNo=26&LangNo=0) as my boot device. If I install a minimal FreeBSD install from CDROM, the machine boots just fine. If I build a NanoBSD image and dd it onto the device, the system attempts to boot and just sits at a blank screen with a flashing cursor. I never see the boot loader start or the kernel begin to load. The same image on several other motherboards works just fine and has been serving us well over the last year. Any ideas where I should start looking?

NanoBSD set's the boot loader(by default in nanobsd.sh) to "boot0sio" ... FreeBSD by default installs "boot0" If I reset the boot loader manually from the fixit disk to use "boot0": boot0cfg -v -B ad0 All is well in the world, except that I don't get a boot loader menu on the serial console(of course). If I then set it back to "boot0sio": boot0cfg -v -b boot0sio ad0 The machine doesn't boot and all I see is a flashing cursor in the upper right hand corner(no BTX boot loader, no kernel, etc...). So, where do I go now? Back to Intel to get them to fix the serial port? Or is this a possible bug in the boot0?
