Sorry, I gave you incomplete information. I can use 'multiboot' to load
the netbsd from any kind of fs, but it makes no difference: 'boot' then
causes the machine to reboot instantly. The same applies to aout: I
can aout load from any fs, but then 'boot' make the machine hang. The
type of fs makes no difference.
I can still 'chainload +1' or 'linux' successfully.
All of the above applies to the latest grub2 from cvs with your most
recent ufs and aout patches applied.
