Hello,

I have found a weird and a bit annoying problem on my Ultra 80.

Previous the behaviour was that, when the loader jumped to the kernel
you would get a stray vector interrupt. And than the boot would continue
(FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT #1: Wed Jun  8 00:55:33 UTC 2005).

Now when the loader jumps to the kernel it just "hangs" with a white
screen. Hangs with quotes because its doesn't really hang, when I press
any key on the keyboard I see a 'G' on the screen and the boot continue
like it should (FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT #7: Mon Jul 11 13:30:34 UTC 2005).

Its not a big problem at the moment, because I use the machine as a 
desktop so I always near. But should I have to reboot the machine
remote it would get stuck and that would be a bit of a problem.
So any ideas how to fix this? I'm willing to test patches.

Koop
