John? cdboot, pxeldr, and btxldr all make assumptions about how the loader is linked. In fact, cdboot and pxeldr share the same exact code in this respect. Did you test cdboot without this fix to see if it had been broken, too? -- John Baldwin <jhb_at_FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.orgReceived on Fri Feb 27 2004 - 06:54:02 UTC
