Good news and bad news. With this patch and your most recent ufs patch I can aout /boot/loader or multiboot /netbsd from a UFS partition, that is the good news. The bad news is that when I type 'boot', /boot/loader prints out its one line of text to identify itself and then hangs forever. When I type 'boot' after loading the netbsd kernel with multiboot, the machine reboots instantly instead of starting the OS. Any ideas? _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
