I tried to upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4. I downloaded and created the iso images.
When I try to boot Disk I It hangs and never boot. The hang comes after the
disk checks and a message appears - mount / on mdc0 or such and nothing
happens it should kick to the sysinstall but doesn't.

So, I rebooted to my 4.3 kernel and used sysinstall to upgrade everything.
And it worked with the packages and the distribution sets. So, I rebuilt my
kernel rebooted and blam freezes again on mounting root. This time the mount
/ ufs on ad0 but never anything else. So now my system has a 4.3 kernel with
4.4 everything else. I don't thing this is a problem is it? Any hints or
suggestions. My machine is as follows:

	PII 400
	256 MB RAM
	Via chipset motherboard.
	3 internal Hard drives.
	1 CDrom
	USB port has a cd burner attached.
