Hi all,

  I think I have a fix for the 'curthread != NULL' panic seen on some 
machines when booting. I can now hold down the 'C' key and boot on the 
old eMac.

  I've put up a tiny (4Mb) test iso image that contains just the loader, 
CHRP boot script and kernel:

   http://people.freebsd.org/~grehan/sprg_test.iso

  Would those affected be able to give it a go ? The kernel should now 
get to the 'mountroot>' prompt.

later,

Peter.
