hi,
this is the output from gpart show:
=> 34 976773101 ada0 GPT (465G)
34 2048 1 freebsd-boot (1.0M)
2082 4194304 2 freebsd-ufs [bootme] (2.0G)
4196386 12582912 3 freebsd-swap (6.0G)

I also did:
gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr ada0
I'm trying to boot and get
Boot loader too large
not matter if I boot from disk or pxe.
The pmbr is 512 bytes, so what causes it to overshoot?
I don't know x86 assembler (nor want to :-), but the comment says:
545k should be enough
so what's going on?
thanks,
danny
