booting a kernel directly from stage 1/2

[Alexander Best]

hi there,

is it still possible to boot a kernel directly from stage 1 and 2 and thus
bypass loader(8)? this is my disk layout:

=>       34  488394988  ada0  GPT  (233G) [CORRUPT]
         34        128     1  freebsd-boot  (64K)
        162   16777216     2  freebsd-swap  (8.0G)
   16777378  471617644     3  freebsd-ufs  (225G)

=>        34  1953525101  ada1  GPT  (932G)
          34    20971520     1  freebsd-swap  (10G)
    20971554     4194304     2  freebsd-ufs  (2.0G)
    25165858  1928359277     3  freebsd-ufs  (920G)

my /boot.conf contains:
0:ad(0p3)/boot/kernel/kernel

but that won't work. i get some numbers and then it says:
btx halted or something like that.

but i can give you the exact message if you need it.

cheers.
alex
