I've noticed some problems wit bootloader: when it comes to a boot menu and the countdown is started, on some machines a counter does not count from 10 to 0, but cycles in 9-8-9-8 and so on, and after 10 seconds prints some garbage on screen and hangs.

do you have serial equipment connected to those machines? modem, mouse, etc.


dragonfly by default spawns a serial bootloader console, so this could be the cause.
