[comp.sys.m6809] the infamous boot order bug

-Yosemite Sam,_Roger Rabbit_) (09/28/88)

	well,i had my first encounter with the os9 level 2 boot order
	bug today.i accidently got my hard disk descriptors in front
	of the kernel modules (os9p1 and os9p2).bad news! the first
	clue i had was that any attempt to use format on my floppies
	resulted in a read error.i just about tore my hair out before
	i figured it out.apparently,anything that gets loaded into
	memory between the boot module and the kernel modules screws
	it up.has anybody else come up with any ideas on this bug?it
	seems to only cause problems when messing with the order of
	the kernel modules.
