The boot loader was installed one year before that, so when I first heard about this problem I thought it could be a regression in the boot loader, but I don't know anything about it. It could possibly be something that has been broken when Poul Henning switched from Makefile to shell script too. I don't have any hardware to test it since I moved to Dublin some months ago. If you can, try to build/install a 5.3-R image with the old build system (Makefile) and with the new. TinyBSD images based on recent FreeBSD version is known to work on WRAP, so this might not be a boot loader issue. -- Florent Thoumie flz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD Committer
