Change in loader or kernel: won't boot with kfreebsd in grub2

I can repeat (again) what uname -a shows:


FreeBSD amelia2 9.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 9.2-PRERELEASE #17 r254196: Sun Aug 11 00:36:49 UTC 2013     root at amelia2:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SANDY  amd64

I just downloaded it, saving as loaderae, using your email username and initials as a suffix.

I assume loader works under a different name?

I can use "kfreebsd/loaderae" instead of "kfreebsd /boot/loader", and loaderae will be preserved over the next update from source.

Then I will want to test the new /boot/loader which might possibly work right with kfreebsd.

Or maybe I will have a newer kfreebsd.
