	Hello,

I've got problem to boot my NetBSD 1.6.2_RC3 systems into single user mode.
If I stop the autoboot and enter "boot -s" the bootloader prints out the
first number and the system simply resets. If I don't interrupt the
autoboot process the systems boots without problems.

I can imagine two possible reasons:
1.) the 149GB harddisk (actually a hardware RAID 1 with 149GB capacity)
2.) the NetBSD 1.6.2_RC3 bootblock
    I had to rewrite the bootblock after copying all the data to the
    new harddisk.

Has anybody else observed such a problem?

	Kind regards
