I observe the same behavior on a Dell Inspiron 510m laptop with CURRENT on it with the same messages. AFAIK it was introduced with this commit: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/cvs-src/2007-May/079011.html (well, actually I have had a broken loader since Jul 5 only (and later), but I think it is related). I have an old working loader from May 11. So as workaround I need to substitute loader.old every time after installworld to update world (and to boot then) successfully. wbr, pluknet
