It didn't? Please, interrupt loader(8) and type "show", and verify that
hint.vt.0.at="isa" is present. If not... Either it is somehow missing
from /boot/device.hints (it shouldn't -- GENERIC.hints does have it), or
you don't have the default /boot/loader.rc & cia.

Did you add options USERCONFIG to see if that helps?

cc'ing Peter on this, though. :-)

		<jkh> _DES: The Book of Bruce has only one sentence in it, and it says
"the actual directives of my cult are left as an exercise for the
reader. Good luck."

		<jkh> EE: OK, I made that part up.
		<jkh> EE: I figured it should sound a bit more cheery than how Bruce
initially dictated it to me.
