I can go in with the fixit disk and reinstall the old boot blocks from -RELEASE for use with an a.out kernel, and everything boots fine. I've done a "make all install clean" of /sys/boot from the -STABLE source tree, so I should be getting the latest and greatest boot blocks, right? Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!
