What sample size is involved in
xtabond pcm AD_CVD yr82-yr94 if all==1 &
year<1992, pre(imp, endog) pre(ks, endog) pre(t, endog) maxldep(5)
maxlags(5)
all 4592?

I was trying to do something very similar a little while ago, and I got
the same error as you did. I don't think I ever figured out why the
-bootstrap- command didn't work for me, possibly the size of my dataset,
or perhaps because it was an unbalanced panel, or maybe it just doesn't
like -xtabond-, I'm not sure.
I ended up programming the bootstrap procedure manually, I think. As I
recall though, I only wanted to use -bootstrap- for comparison purposes
- is there a specific reason you require it?
