Was your system >upgraded to 3.x from 2.2.x? The system was changed over from -CURRENT earlier this year. Ironicly the change was done to have a more stable system. At that time I had to deal with the change to ELF and installation of new a loader. Anyway, does anyone have a suggestion on the bootblock problem? As it is now the FreeBSD partition is dead since when I try to load FreeBSD and the machine reboots before seeing any signs of FreeBSD.
