Hi! 

I've tried to install the new 7.2-RC2 FreeBSD version, on a HP-UX IVM (*) 
guest virtual machine.
But I couldn't install it. With verbose boot, the only one I can get is: 

..... (other devices)
lo0: bpf attached
Waiting 5 seconds for SCSI devices to settle

fatal kernel trap (cpu 0):

    cr.isr      = 0x80400000000 (code=0,vector=0,r,ei=0,ed)

By the way, in the past, I tried 7.0, and 7.1 in IVM, without any success.
All of them panicked at that point. Is it possible to run Itanium-based
FreeBSD on an IVM virtual machine? And if it is, how? 

Thanks 

Gabor 

(*) HP IVM is a software virtualization, (like VmWare Workstation) running 
on Itanium based HP-UX machines, creating virtual Itanium machines (I can 
run IA64-Windows / IA64-Linux, and of course IA64-HP-UX operating systems in 
the VM-s paralelly)
