    BTX loader problems are notoriously difficult to locate.  We've 
    basically dup'd the boot loader from FreeBSD so I don't know if we
    will be able to figure out and fix this issue ourselves.
	The question is, does the 5-CURRENT bootloader (which we have
	dup'd) work David ?  If it does, then there is a light at the
	end of this tunnel. :-)
