 I looked closer at the boot process and noticed that
 right before boot2 presents me with an ability to load
 the kernel, I get a "No /boot/loader" error. When I
 type "boot" at the boot2 promt and it starts loading
 the kernel, there is also a "loader(8) metadata
 missing !" error. However when I cd to /boot, I see
 loader.conf, loader itself, and other related files.
 What could possibly be wrong and how can I make the
 system use loader to boot the kernel ? Originally,
 /boot/loader was not set to be executable (what would
 it matter that early in the booting process though),
 so I went and chmodded it to 755, didn't help.
 
 ls -la from /boot:

 ================================================================
 
 In case you're wondering, that UDMA33 thing in "local
 daemons" is output of atacontrol set to change the
 transfer mode of my CDROM on boot.
 
 Any more information needed ?
 
 Sincerely,
 Dan Naumov
