amd64 - odd bootstrap behavior
Recently (last week or so) I reported a problem with the boot loader not
properly handling module "load" commands. Well, that problem seems to
have been fixed.
However, now there's a new problem... My /boot.cfg looks like this:
load=acpibut
load=acpicpu
load=aibs
load=hpet
load=amdtemp
load=hdaudio
load=hdafg
load=itesio
menu=Boot normally:boot netbsd
menu=Boot single user:boot netbsd -s
menu=Disable ACPI:boot netbsd -2
menu=Disable ACPI and SMP:boot netbsd -12
menu=Drop to boot prompt:prompt
menu=Run memory test:boot memtestplus
default=1
timeout=5
clear=1
When I boot the machine, it properly loads all the requested modules,
but then it gives me the single-user "what shell to use" prompt! I'm
unsure if it is simply always dropping to single user, or if the menu
entries are suddenly zero-origin (even though when the menu is printed,
it is one-origin).
This is with boot blocks built earlier today. Has anyone else seen
anything like this?
