/boot/loader bug

:More info:  loader will not recognize anything past logical
:partition 6 (and mis-numbers it as 7).
:
:When I deleted enough partitions to bring my DFly partition
:down to number 6 the loader recognized it and I could load
:the kernel from the extended partition.  Exciting!
:
:It still won't boot properly because loader is confused by
:its own misnumbering of the partitions.  Once that bug is
:fixed I think it will all just work.
    
    I really appreciative the investigative work and look forward to seeing
    a patch!   No pressure :-)
