I suspect that loading a kernel > directly from boot2 will fail reliably on a 16k/2k filesystem. You should increase BSIZEMAX in sys/boot/i386/boot2/boot2.c to 16384 before 4.5-RC1 goes out. This should not have any sideeffects, but we really don't want to go creating a filesystem that the bootstrap can't reliably read. It would probably be safe to simply bump BUFSIZE in the alpha boot1 as well. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
