---- System Update Information:
The FreeBSD Boot Manager (boot0) has a bug that causes it to hang the machine
during boot with no screen output.
Fix: Boot your machine into FreeBSD either via a boot floppy or a CD-ROM, then
download a new boot0 binary from the following location:
<a href="http://people.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/4.1R/i386/boot0">http://people.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/4.1R/i386/boot0</a>
Once you have downloaded the new binary, install it with the boot0cfg command
onto your hard disk. For example, if you have boot0 on disk ad0, you would
run the following command:
/usr/sbin/boot0cfg -B -b /path/to/downloaded/boot0 ad0
You may also use cvsup to update your source tree and build the new boot0
binary from source. You will need version 1.14.2.3 of
src/sys/boot/i386/boot0/boot0.s or newer.
The MD5 checksum of this file is:
MD5 (boot0) = 8770a386dba44f0aa06b15db72c1f624
To verify the checksum of your downloaded copy, perform the following
command:
/sbin/md5 /path/to/downloaded/boot0
and compare with the above.
