One thing that can get you is if you have customized "/boot/loader.rc"
in the past. The make install for the bootloader won't replace this
file if one is already present. I had a very old one I had hacked up,
and it didn't do the same things as the standard version. I saw the
same symptoms you're describing.
I deleted my old loader.rc, reinstalled the bootloader, and then
everything worked.
