It is rebooting before /boot/loader.rc because none of the "key" commands
I've put there are executed.

The new problem I have is that after inserting the "key" in various places
in loader.rc (including at the end) and trying to load another kernel, I
can't break the boot and /kernel is hanging the machine (Neomagic problem).

I'll boot on the floppy tonight and try to correct these.

I rebooted because the kernel was hanging during compilation of a new
kernel... The disk was completely hung but I was able to ^C "make".

Everything was froken on disk access till I ^C the build. It is getting
weirder...
