Hi! I'm trying to use both -CURRENT and -STABLE, on different slices on the same disk. The first slice is for -CURRENT(a DOS one that I'm nuking) and the second is for -STABLE. I use the 2.2.7-RELEASE bootdisk to fdisk and disklabel the -CURRENT slice. However, when I reboot the boot:-prompt says "empty partition", and "kernel not found". Fdisk also shows the flag "C"(as in compatibility) for the first slice. To boot -STABLE again, I must remove the newly added slice. I though the removal of the compat devices should enable me to do something like this. Is this possible or must I use two different disks? Please CC me since I'm not on this list.
