The system in question is a 586 running 4.7-STABLE from February 12, 2003; however, this problem has been persisting for quite some time. I have tried installing new boot code into the slice using disklabel as well as updating the MBR, neither of which fixed the problem. Do any of you know what may be causing this and/or how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I apologize for not providing the text that appears on the screen; the whole process takes place very quickly and as such it does not stay around long enough for me to copy it down. If there is a way to get these messages, I would be happy to do whatever was needed in order to make troubleshooting this problem less difficult. -- Mark Laws mdl@60hz.org http://www.60hz.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
