hello, i have some exposure to the freebsd code, but not extensive. i am 
reading the sys/boot code, and saw that the 3 stage boot process involves a 
jump from the loader to the kernel in the last phase. i was wondering if it 
is possible to engineer the kernel to jump back to the loader in some 
special cases?

kindly cc me as i am not on the list.
