Try deleting occurrences of '/boot/' from /boot/loader.rc. And set vfs.mount.mountfrom in /boot/loader.conf. If you are working from a fresh install from HEAD this shouldn't be needed, as loader.rc has been changed in CVS; I guess we should put a note in UPDATING (loader.rc isn't touched by `make upgrade' as it's a user config file) Also: gpt(8) (HEAD) has an example (with note on deleting '/boot/' from loader.rc) of installing system using HAMMER as root file system. loader(8) (HEAD) describes -thomas
