Aha. So on a laptop I have where booting FreeBSD from a usb harddrive
results in endless scrolling of text on the console (probably register

I can boot NetBSD and OpenBSD from different partitions on the same usb
hardrive, on the same laptop.
Is there a known fix or workaround for this issue? (Probably not, but
just in case...)
Does the GRUB bootloader behave this way? If not (e.g. it works),
then one could use that as an alternative to btx.
GRUB is working in my case (GRUB on USB flash can boot FreeBSD 6.2 on
Sun Fire X2100 and some others, where BTX is not working). But as I
mentioned somewhere - stil not working on HP servers - don't know why.
