From source cvsup on 6/23/99, the kernel traps on boot near sc0. I tried every variation of the kernel I can think of, including GENERIC, and same thing. I finally changed to vt0 and it booted up fine. I am using the standard sio0 config with the 0x10 flag and a /boot.config file with "-h".

place of logfile for cron (PR 7682)

I'll fix it, but not this way. It's time to prepare for handling larger than terabyte disks that still have a 512 byte sector size as well. The actual calculation should be: (((u_int64_t) dp-secsize) * ((u_int64_t) dp-sectors)) 20LL and the format statement should be %qdMB for the Megabyte
