I have a separate 'development' -stable partition. I haven't made any modifications to the system yet -- just tested that the partition is bootable and everything works fine. However, when trying to boot the same partition under bochs I get a BTX error when /boot/loader is loaded. (I get similar error when I try to load the kernel directly. Boot2 seems to be working fine, though - I can list the files in the root partition). Any ideas? (the kernel is compiled for I586) I have a working freebsd-4.7 image downloaded from bochs.sf.net. It works with the same .bochsrc file so I suspect this is a kernel configuration issue (or maybe using a dedicated partition wasn't a good idea?) -- Nimrod.
