We're having trouble using the new boot loader code and '-h' in boot.config. It appears that unless the terminal is connected to the serial port a machine doesn't reboot properly. My guess is that the new boot serial code is defaulting to hardware handshaking on the serial terminal line, whereas the original boot code didn't. A quick glance at the code didn't confirm this, but does anyone know the answer to this off the top of their heads? Joe -- Josef Karthauser FreeBSD: How many times have you booted today?
