My issue: Why does FreeBSD 5.3 not reboot? It basically locks up when I perform a reboot. The same thing happens if I halt and then press any key to reboot. Here's sort of what I see on the local terminal (some snips): Uptime: blah.... Rebooting... cpu_reset called on CPU#0 cpu_reset: Stopping other CPUs <Stuck Block cursor> ...and that's all I ever see. But while this is being printed to the screen, I get five beeps. I don't remember that many beeps in FreeBSD 4.x. BEEP, beep beep beep, BEEP I don't know how long I've waited for the system to reboot, but so far it hasn't. The system is a dual-processor Pentium Pro with an APM BIOS and no ACPI. This machine rebooted fine when it ran FreeBSD 4.7. Has the code changed for the cpu_reset function recently that would cause this regression? Thanks, Billy
