thanks, but the issue is with the loader itself
Telling it to use loader.old should definitely work around that
problem. Unless, of course, the problem lies within something that
starts even earlier. In this case, you could always use a 6.0 CD to
restore the original, working, files.

i tried to interrupt booting process as you advised in previous email
but that didn't work. i spotted some text from grub, then something
like [FreeBSD-a.out ..... and then reset.
anyway, i've fixed it for now by booting from CD and renaming
/boot/loader.old to /boot/loader
i'll try to investigate on this later on.
thank you for your help!
martin

hello again,
i've just cvsuped to 6.0-stable and recompiled & reinstalled world &
kernel and guess what ?!? -- loader is still broken!!!
this time my machine is not reset, it just hangs. and i had to boot from
cd and replace loader with the original 6.0-R. :-(
this definetely needs to get fixed. i'll be happy to help someone more
experienced, of course.
regards,
martin
Show us what's in /boot/loader.conf
chris,
i believe that's not important here as new loader does not even get to
that point. and when i replace it with original 6.0-R, it works just
fine. but anyway, here's my /boot/loader.conf:
# /boot/loader.conf : mato [26-nov-2005]
#verbose_loading="YES"
autoboot_delay="1"
#beastie_disable="YES"
loader_logo="beastie"
and here's /boot/loader.conf.local:
# /boot/loader.conf.local : mato [26-nov-2005]
#bitmap_load="YES"
#splash_bmp_load="YES"
#loader_color="YES"
vesa_load="YES"
#radeon_load="YES" # ?
#sound_load="YES" # auto loaded

kern.cam.scsi_delay="2000"
#hw.ata.ata_dma="0"
#hw.ata.atapi_dma="0"
hw.snd.maxautovchans="4"
and here's my /etc/make.conf:
# /etc/make.conf : customised by martinko [13-nov-2005]
