If it won't respond to Ctrl-Alt-Esc, I'd be interested to know if it responds to an NMI (easiest way is to short /IOCHK to GND on the ISA bus - these are conveniently opposite sides of the end closest to the back of the case). You might also like to prune your kernel down to what's actually in the box. The output from a boot -v could also help. >device eisa Unless it's got an EISA bus, this is unnecessary. >device ata0 at isa? port IO_WD1 irq 14 >device ata1 at isa? port IO_WD2 irq 15 These are unnecessary if you've for a PCI controller. >device atapifd # ATAPI floppy drives >device atapist # ATAPI tape drives Do you really have these? >device de # DEC/Intel DC21x4x (``Tulip'') >device fxp # Intel EtherExpress PRO/100B (82557, 82558) >device tx # SMC 9432TX (83c170 ``EPIC'') >device vx # 3Com 3c590, 3c595 (``Vortex'') >device ed0 at isa? port 0x280 irq 10 iomem 0xd8000 >device ex >device ep 7 different types of NICs. What sort of NIC (and how many) do you actually have? This is partially self-interest because I have a machine that locks hard (neither Ctrl-Alt-Esc nor NMI work). I'm still trying to determine whether it's a problem with the hardware or the fxp driver.
