Subject:   Install of 6.3RC1 on Virtual PC 2007 hangs
Message-ID:  <014a01c836ca$072c8130$0105000a@black>

The installation of 6.3RC1 hangs at the line
Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0
 
the probes immediately before this were:
md0: Preloaded image </boot/mfsroot> 4423680 bytes at 0xc0b47cd4
ad0: 8195MB <Virtual HD 1.1> at ata0-master WDM2
acd0: DVDROM <Virtual CD/> at ata1-master PIO4
 
This is being attempted via Virtual PC 2007 on a Core2Duo T5500 with 256MB
allocated to the image, and 8GB to the VDisk.  The physical CD has been used
to successfully install on standalone computers, so the burnt image is ok.
 
This isn't urgent but should be noted as there may be other virtualisation
instances where RC1 doesn't install as expected.  We're happy to perform
other tests as required.  We're staging 6.3 on Via C7's, and Intel with
hifn's, and the notebook is used for quick testing of crash/burn work.
 
Regards, Phil.
