It happened immediately after a freebsd-update -r 7.1-BETA, and is too early in the boot process to recover from without manual intervention. I'm going to get a 7.0-RELEASE loader back on the machine, and try building a firewire loader to trap the full output. >How-To-Repeat: Most likely board related, I'll get a basic dmesg once I've been able to boot up something useful. >Fix: N/A >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
