Re: Weird reboots from bootmgr or loader

Hi,

I also got the same BTX error during boot up. :(
I used 4.8-RELEASE CD to boot till loader starts up,
changed currdev/loaddev/kernel etc to the -CURRENT setting
and let system boot.

May be, we have to run 'bsdlabel -B' just before shutting down
system, everytime, until it gets fixed. :(
