Dear All, Forgive my ignorance, as I haven't even tried -current on my Alpha yet (UDB -still not supported right?), but where do bootblocks fit into the Alpha boot process? I thought you just typed: boot blah/kernel into SRM and it would boot the kernel? I guess I must be wrong, so where do the bootblocks fit in? Does the boot command in SRM call the secondary boot code in the bootblocks and then that calls the kernel? confused in NY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Matt Hamilton Clintondale Aviation matt@clintondale.com http://www.clintondale.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
