>Description:
    When trying to boot an install floppy from a couple of recent versions of -current
    (2003-05-28 and 2003-08-13) on a VIA EPIA-V8000 Mini-ITX motherboard with a Toshiba
    USB floppy, the system quickly reboots. Sometimes with the more recent of the two
    builds above it displays something along the lines of 'NetBSD ufstar primary
    bootstrap' before the reboot, other times, and always with the earlier kernel, it
    displays nothing, it just reboots. After the reboot, the system will go most of
    the way through its standard BIOS startup, but will never attempt to boot from
    any drive again, until reset.
