/boot/loader broken in 7.1

[Christian Laursen]

After I upgraded one of my machines from FreeBSD 7.0 to 7.1, I am
experiencing a problem with the loader. It stops with these messages:

Can't work out which disk we are booting from.
Guessed BIOS device 0xffffffff not found by probes, defaulting to disk0:

can't load 'kernel'


I have taken a screenshot (Yes, with my camera):

I notice the follwoing at the top of the screen:
skip_newline\ not found

When looking through the forth code I see a function named
skip_newlines. Does this perhaps indicate that some string handling goes
wrong somewhere?


Anyway, using /boot/loader.old from 7.0 works perfectly. I have not seen
this issue on any of the other 10+ machines that I have upgraded to 7.1.

I am ready to provide more info on request if neccesary.
