Using an older boot0cfg (from 5.2-RC2) does work. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Since my FreeBSD slice is beyond the 1024th cylinder I have to boot a 5.2-RC2 rescue CD and perform boot0cfg. It works whether boot0 is taken from 5.2-RC2 or from 5.2-CURRENT (Aug 7th). The only difference is that the one from 5.2-CURRENT beeps when the menu is displayed which makes sense. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
