>Description:
This is a follow-up to  misc20205, but unfortunately for some reason I was unable to email freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org (tried several times).

Anyway, I have tried to install FreeBSD 4.1 and I can get it to install, but when I reboot, all I get appearing is a flashing minus symbol at the top of the screen, and the following:
 
 int=0000000d err=00000000 efl=00030246 eip=00000711
 eax=00000801 ebx=00000000 ecx=00000000 edx=00000101
 esi=000005cf edi=00000008 ebp=000003cf esp=000003c7
 cs=ee00 ds=ee00 es=1200 fs=0000 gs=0000 ss=9e02
 cs:iep=of 09 50 53 51 57 b8 08-b1 bb 00 00 bf 73 00 cd
 ss=esp=0e 10 00 00 00 08 00 00-00 00 44 09 00 43 1f 00
 System Halted

 BUT, if I boot from the install floppies, break before the kernel starts loading, then unload, set currdev=disk1s1a: , load kernel, then boot, it
 all works.

 I'm guessing the problem is either something in the Compaq configuration utility, or
 something in the boot directory (boot0, or mbr perhaps).  However, I am
 unsure, as I am new to FreeBSD (normally I use Linux).

Can you offer any suggestions?

If it helps, this is the dmesg output I get after I have booted from floppies:
