I'm referring to NetBSD-HEAD, not RELEASE. I'm sure you will understand the commit messages better than I do (search for multiboot): http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC
What's the exact error message?
free magic is broken at 0x5cb60: 0xbb<etc>
On FreeBSD I use grub0.95 to load /boot/loader as 'the kernel' and everything just works. Using grub2, I can't tell exactly what I am supposed to use, e.g. insmod, module, or [whatever]. There is no 'kernel' command any more, right?Someone should write a new loader for that.
Would it be better to add multiboot support to the kernel and eliminate /boot/loader?
