FreeBSD's CD bootcode '/boot/cdboot' is targeting stage 3 boot -> loader

For example, stage 2 boot '/boot/boot' is attempting the same.



In my case of a '/boot/loader', '/boot' is a symlink!



So if '/boot/boot' works with symlinks, why '/boot/cdboot' doesn't!

Yes, I did use Rock-Ridge extensions, upon creation of 'cd.iso'





# qemu -curses -m 512 -cdrom cd.iso -boot d

CD Loader 1.2



Building the boot loader arguments

Looking up /BOOT/LOADER... File not found

Looking up /boot/loader... Read Error: 0x0c

--





Also regardinq qemu ...



When running qemu on ttyv0 via curses:

# qemu -curses ...



I'm not able to exit from it.

Also, I would like to scroll back whole qemu's output (i.e; boot procedure)
