It'd help if you could sort out this pile of details and list the actual combinations that you tried; at the moment I can't even begin to guess at the cause of your problem(s). More or less in summary: Invalid slice - you have the geometry mixed up Bootmanager beep - you have the geometry mixed up differently Register dump - looks like a BIOS bug, but hard to tell without eax System halted - should have register dump, see above If you can offer some more details, I can work on trying to reproduce the problem. -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
