boot>

At the boot prompt, I usually enter:

	/kernelname

to boot the desired kernel off the root partition. If you make a typo, and
then enter a valid /kernelname, it doesn't do anything:

boot> /bsdwhoops
booting hd0a:/bsdwhoops:  failed(2). will try /obsd
boot> /bsd
boot>

You have to enter "boot bsd" when this happens. Just wondering if there was
any reason for this behavior.
