    Hi list, me again

    after updating my pc (RELENG_6) last night and everything went
    fine i updated my laptop as well. Unfortunately my laptop ran into
    this constantly rebooting problem caused by the new
    /boot/loader. And again, /boot/loader.old works fine on my
    laptop. 

    Moreover, while booting i get the following message:

    sysctl: unknown oid 'net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal'

    due to missing inet6 support in my kernel.


    regards,
