I'm toying with the possibility of making the bootloader load a second ascii file that contains that stuff.. I have the mods to the bootloader from OSF that do it, and both bootloaders have a common parent.. (The mach bootloader).. the question is where do I find the ROOM in the bootblocks to cram it in, and how shall Itell FreeBSD where I've put it? julian
