State Changed From-To: open->feedback You don't say how you installed the multiple boot loader. Is there any possibility you can send the commands required to reproduce this. I've installed it many time using both sysinstall and disklabel and never had a problem. David. State Changed From-To: feedback->closed Feedback timeout. And I don't think this is an issue anymore, least *I* had no problem yesterday. |

The 10 Gb drive /dev/ad0 crash totally with need to fix the partition table, the boot sector and to format, with all data lost.
