This suggests that boot1 is > broken. Ugh, it shouldn't be. :( Can you lookup that address in the loader and see if anything looks like it could be recursing infinitely? Also, do 'e ra' to get the previous return address so you can look that up in boot1/loader using gdb as well. You can also do 'e sp' and then examine the memory from that ragne downwoards (the stack) to find the recursion addresses. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
