I haven't looked in depth yet, but it's a bit more. the loader switches
to amd64 and sets preliminary page translation

Hi,
Please try the btx loader in /boot/loader, which I believe to be
32-bit even in amd64 freebsd. The btx loader is an a.out executable,
grurb2 has supported for it already.
Ah, just noticed I replied to this before subscribing, so the copy to
the list bounced.
Let's try again.
The BTX loader starts, yes - but the reason I'm using GRUB2 in the
first place is to skip it,
since it doesn't seem to support logical partitions.
Hi,
Oh, thanks for the information. The 32-bit bsd kernel is basically an
elf image that needs a little address translation:
physical address = virtual address & 0xFFFFFF
I think the principle can be applied to 64-bit kernel as well, it
shouldn't be difficult to add support for it.
