Hi all,

Here's a chance to test out the kernel selection menu enhancements
to the boot loader menu before they go into HEAD.

Discussion welcome, feedback desired.

No recompile needed, just drop the new forth files onto a HEAD or
stable/9 box and reboot.

Cheers,

where are the forth files in question?


D'Oh!

Here they are:

Supplied as patches to either stable/9 or head.

Hmmm.  I saw no appreciable changes to behavior when I patched all
the files in /boot with these versions.  This was on a sparc64 host
running 10-BETA3 (compile this morning).

Notably, the kernel and modules still loaded before presenting me
with the option to tell it which kernel to load:

Executing last command: boot /pci@1f,0/pci@1/scsi@8/disk@0,0:a
Boot device: /pci@1f,0/pci@1/scsi@8/disk@0,0:a  File and args:

>> FreeBSD/sparc64 ZFS boot block
   Boot path:   /pci@1f,0/pci@1/scsi@8/disk@0,0:a
Consoles: Open Firmware console
