Hi all, Running 4.0-STABLE (though I had the same issue in 4.0-RELEASE). I've got a 10 gig IDE Hard drive with two FAT32 paritions taking 2 gig and 6 gig, and then a 2.4 gig FreeBSD partition. / - 100 megs /var - 100 megs swap - 268 megs /usr - 1800 megs On bootup, I get the following: >> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default: 0:ad(0,a)? boot: /load /boot/loader Disk error 0x1 (lba=0xfc093c) No /boot/loader The system continues to boot /kernel automatically and runs fine from there. (I've patched the kernel per kern/17422 to get top, vmstat etc. working). For the record, /boot/loader *does* exist. I've read an explanation about the 1024 cylinder limit, but I used the exact same configuration with 3.4-STABLE and /boot/loader worked fine. Any assistance would be appreciated.
