9.0-RELEASE amd64 install media
>Description:
I accidentally got my invocation backwards, was impatient and tried the opposite form and it blew up looking in the VOP code when I did the following:

1. Boot 9.0-RELEASE as a LiveCD.
2. Execute the following commands:
   mkdir /tmp/etc
   mount_unionfs /tmp/etc /etc
   mount_unionfs /etc /tmp/etc
3. Accessing either /etc or /tmp/etc after that should result in a panic.
