Subject:   2.1.5-RELASE kernel doesn't boot
Message-ID:  <199608061922.MAA11974@vpm.com>

Hi All:


I've been trying to compile a customized kernel in 2.1.5-RELEASE and after
installing the kernel and rebooting, it starts reading the kernel, I mean
right after the 'boot:' prompt passes, then I see the video screen refresh
and nothing.  It just hangs at that point.  Anyone know what may be causing
this problem?

Thanks,
Mark


Here's my system config:
  Pentium 75 w/Zappa motherboard, 256k cache and 32MB RAM
  On-Board IDE Controller wth Bus mastering
  Adaptec 2940 PCI SCSI Controller
  SMC PCI NIC
  1 - Western Digital 2.1GB HD <-- The entire FBSD is on this drive
  2 - Maxtors 1.2 SCSI HD
  1 - Seagate 2.1 SCSI Barracuda


Here's the kernel config:
