Aha, the problem is boot.atari!
I booted up from loadbsd.ttp with your kernel/sysinst and ran:
/usr/mdec/installboot -v /dev/rsd0c
..it didn't help.
Then I booted up from loadbst.ttp with your kernel/sysinst and copied
boot.atari from sysinst over to the mounted /dev/sd0a. I wasn't too
hopeful
that this would work after observing that the file sizes appeared to be
the
same. But it worked -- the system now boots!
So somehow there is something different about the boot.atari on your
atari-HEAD-20090105 sysinst.fs vs. the one that's dropped onto the drive
during an install.
Okay, I see. /boot.atari in base.tgz is actually a copy of
/usr/mdec/milan/boot.atari, not /usr/mdec/std/boot.atari.
(they have a different entry address)
Maybe we should remove /boot.atari from base.tgz and
modify sysinst to choose and copy a proper tertiary boot.atari
from /usr/mdec dir per running machine types.
I'll check how it can be handled in sysinst.
