Hi Guys,

I have put the latest code at
http://people.freebsd.org/~jhay/ixp425-boot-20081005.tgz

I have included most of Sam's stuff and also the patches I got from
Andrew Thompson. I have tried to make it autodetect the partitioning
schemes mostly used, so that we do not need to use compile options
for that. It should now handle slices+bsdlabel+partions, slices-only
and also bsdlabel+partitions (without slices).

It should also handle the various ROOTDEVNAME options used: ufs:ad0s1a,
ufs:ad0s1, ufs:ad0a and also ufs:ROOTDEVNAME if you have FIXUP_BOOT_DRV
defined (which is the default).

I think it is ready for commit. Anybody want to look at it or try it
to make sure your stuff still works before I commit it?

John
