I've got a couple of IBM Intellistation M Pro machines, running NetBSD
3.0, one with a pair of SCSI drives, one with a pair of IDE drives. Both
have run into a strange problem where on boot they just print ""NetBSD
MBR boot" over and over again. Re-running installboot(8) seems to fix
the problem.

It seems that this might be related to BIOS setting resetting themselves
on hardware changes; this happens when we pull a drive (to test booting
from the second drive of a mirrored pair) and put it back in, which
causes the bios to reset the boot device order to its default.

Any thoughts?
