Maybe you have an old Grub which doesn't grok UFS2?
No, Grub 0.97 works fine with UFS2

I will cvsup again and rebuild everything, without "CPUTYPE=athlon-xp"
in make.conf
I can remember some bootproblems on my laptop with CPUTYPE?=pentium3m


It is the case on my machine so i use chainloader to boot freebsd, like that:
title FreeBSD
root (hd0,3)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader +1
boot

Linux i can boot directly:
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.8-2-k7
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-2-k7 root=/dev/hda6 ro acpi=force
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-2-k7
savedefault
boot

WindowsXP i also chainload.



I had similar problems, the following entry in my /etc/make.conf fixed
this for me:

# /boot/loader crashs with pentium-m
.if ${.CURDIR:M*/src/sys/boot/i386/loader*}
.undef CPUTYPE
CPUTYPE?= pentium3
CFLAGS= -O2 -pipe
.endif

Just replace pentium3 with something that works on your system.
