I've installed 7.3-STABLE/amd64 under VMWare server now. This VM dows not show the 'FATAL: int13_harddisk: function 42. Can't use 64bits lba' issue and seems to behave exactly like my hardware this pr is referring to. After a screen full of builtin not found forth not found I see only not found can't load 'kernel' Type '?' for a list of commands. 'help' for more detailed help. OK ls open '/' failed: input/output error OS lsdev cd devices: disk devices: disk0: BIOS drive A: disk1: BIOS drive C: disk2: BIOS drive D: pxe devices: zfs devices: OK So the systems was able to load zfsloader from my zfsroot and forgot where to load the kernel from. Correct? Thanks, Knarf P.S.: This time without annoying S/MIME signature, displayed under http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=145613&cat= , but it's still me. :)
