Does the system boot if you copy the bootloader image on the bootflash
and point the BOOTLDR variable to it (boot system bootldr
bootflash:bootldr-image). I have no hybrid boxes anymore so I cannot
test that. I just remember the bootloader image was required when
running hybrid but I may be mistaken.
