FreeBSD 8.0 SCSI Boot

[Doug Hardie]

I tried to upgrade a 7.2 system to 8.0.  It uses a SCSI drive.  It works fine on 7.2.  However, it would appear that during the upgrade process when running make delete-old (?) there is a note about make delete-old-libs (?).  Don't do that at that point.  End of system.  Make installworld fails miserably.  Unfortunately rebooting caused numerous problems.  First the /etc/fstab was listed as corrupt.  Then it quit booting altogether.  A complete reload from the disc 1 goes nowhere either.  It installs just fine but when it goes to reboot, All I get is F1 followed by a bunch of increasing #s.  Any key just adds more to the list.  I have tried with both the standard and FreeBSD boot managers with the same result.  Is there anyway to get it to boot off the SCSI drive?  I couldn't find anything related to this in the forums etc.
