I've got the same or a similar problem on my laptop with a new world and
kernel from yesterday.  I can't even boot into freebsd, only windows:-(.
With F3 for FreeBSD it immediately reboots with no visible message.
Windows is the first partition in this case.  Anyone else seeing this?
Maybe I'm just lucky and have another problem ;-)

Thanks for any suggestions,
