Hello all,
I just blew away a old RELENG_11, to start working with current=2E I
must admit I had several disappointments regarding the installer=2E
But that's for another topic, and another time=2E
To the point;
I completed the install=2E The only event(s) that might be notable
during the install=2E Was early on during (boot?) I saw a "dumped core"
race past on the screen=2E I also experienced at least 1 LOR=2E But the
install continued, seemingly un(interrupted|affected)=2E That said, I
chose the reboot option after completion=2E Ejected the DVD during POST,
and I'm stuck at:

BTX loader 1=2E00 BTX version is 1=2E02
Consoles: internal video/keyboard

followed by 2 gibberish characters; 1 appears as a right pointing arrow,
the other, kind of like a battlestar galactca spaceship=2E
NOTE: those 2 characters did not show up on the initial reboot from
the install (just the 2 lines above)=2E But after I attempted a hard
reset after the first fail=2E

Thank you for all your time, and consideration=2E

--Chris
