install/47855: heap full on second boot, rndseed related



>Number:         47855
>Category:       install
>Synopsis:       heap full on second boot, rndseed related
>Confidential:   no
>Severity:       critical
>Priority:       medium
>Responsible:    install-manager
>State:          open
>Class:          sw-bug
>Submitter-Id:   net
>Arrival-Date:   Sun May 26 15:15:00 +0000 2013
>Originator:     Kai-Uwe Eckhardt
>Release:        6.99.20 from May 22
>Organization:
>Environment:
amd64 GENERIC  on an Asus R530V Notebook (i3 quad core). 
>Description:
After installation it boots the first time. But after login and an
immediate  shutdown -p now  the second boot fails with:
12719640 + 620248 + 620840 [859008+571747]=0xfaeee0
heap full (0x68c7c+32768)

Booting from the boot prompt with  boot hd0a:netbsd works. After
removing the rndseed entry in boot.cfg from the normal boot option
it boots fine. 

I have repeated the installation three times each with 6.99.20 and with
6.99.19 from April 14th. The 6.99.20 fails and 6.99.19 works consistently.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install 6.99.20 and boot a second time.
>Fix:
remove rndseed from boot.cfg on the first boot.
