After that I got the following: # reboot reboot: device not configured # ls vnode_pager_getpages: I/O read error ls: device not configured Pressing the boxes power button results in the above vnode message to spam = the=20 screen. The only way to reset the system was to do a hard reset (root was = ro=20 :-) ). =20 Is this expected behaviour or something wrong with the HDD? =20 I have been having issues with VirtualBox where doing IO (network and HDD)= =20 causes DMA problems resulting in the system panicing and rebooting. Could= =20 this be related? =20 I haven't finished diagnosing the VirtualBox problem but booting the guest = in=20 safe mode (the guest is FreeBSD-current) does not fix the problem. =20 Thanks for your assistance.
