  I just updated my 10-stable sparc64 (Sun Fire v240) to a 10-stable =
kernel from revision 263676, which was the first one I found after the =
numerous failures over the weekend in route6d.  Reboot into single-user =
for mergemaster and install world, I attempted to reboot into multi-user =
the first two attempts yielded:

Trying to mount root from zfs:zroot []...
Setting hostuuid: 94588820-cd20-11e1-b15b-0003bae34047.

Uptime: 23s
Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort

  Both were the same, except 27s uptime in one case and 23s in the =
other.  The next reboot went all the way to multiuser, and appears to be =
operating normally.  At least, for the first 5 minutes.

  I=92ll keep an eye on it.  But, is this possibly related to the bge0 =
device driver, or is this more likely to be a problem in the =
sparc/sparc64 code not related to a specific device?

  The prior kernel that had been running without this problem was:

FreeBSD 10.0-STABLE #6 r261083: Thu Jan 23 17:54:24 EST 2014

  Just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts, and I=92ll hope the =
machine stays operational now that it=92s up and running=85
