Hi,

Yesterday I did a fresh install from the 20080203 image, and when
booting from the harddisk I get a 'panic' almost immediately after the
booting process starts.
When this happens, the line "Press almost any key to reset..panic.."
is repeatedly (with a very small interval) printed to the screen.
After approximately 12 seconds, the last two characters of 'reset' are
garbled, and this garbled variant of the message is then repeatedly
printed to the screen.
After approximately 15 more seconds, more of the message gets garbled,
after which this even more garbled version of the message is
repeatedly printed to the screen for approximately 4 seconds.
Then the machine resets.
During this > 30 seconds of message printing, the machine doesn't seem
to respond to keypresses; it keeps scrolling the message instead of
resetting.

This only happens on my real hardware though: when I boot my harddisk
from linux through qemu, Plan 9 comes up nicely.

The previous image I did a fresh install from, 20071222, didn't have
this problem.

Does anyone have an idea about what could be causing this, or how I
can obtain useful information about what may be causing this?

Thanks in advance,

Sander.
