Greetings, I have been trying to install FreeBSD 4.5 from CD for a few weeks now to no avail. The installation locks up when the hardware probe begins. I have tried all of the kernel configurations I can think of in the full screen visual mode during the boot process. I have tried disabling averything except sc0 and ata0 and ata1 for my Promise Ultra66 controller card. I have a Quantum Fireball plugged into the master slot 1 of the Promise card and a Western Digital into the master of the second slot in the Promise card. I also have my CD-RW plugged into on-board chip as master on the first slot. Can anyone help me get past this? I've had trouble in the past with this in Linux - the workaround was to send ide2=noautotune as a kernel parameter (if that helps anything). Thanks in advance, Greg GRooVyGReG@bigfoot.com Here is my verbose boot log (please forgive any typos, I copied it onto paper, then typed that up) - I can't seem to get up any higher using scroll lock before it locks up and starts beeping at me: BIOS Geometries: 0:03fefe3f 0..1022=1023 cylinders, 0..254=255 heads, 1..63=63 sectors 1:03fefe3f 0..1022=1023 cylinders, 0..254=255 heads, 1..63=63 sectors 0 accounted for Device configuration finished. bpf: lo0 attached bpf: sl0 attached ata2-master: success setting UDMA4 on Promise chip Creating DISK ad4 ad4: 28629MB <QUANTUM FIREBALLP LM30.0>[58168/16/63] at ata2-master UDMA66 ata3-master: success setting UDMA4 on Promise chip creating DISK ad6 ad6: <WDC WD400BB-00AUA1/18.20D18> ATA-5 at ata3-master ad6: 38166MB (78165360 sectors), 77545 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S ad6: 16 secs/int, 1 depth queue, UDMA66 ad6: piomode=4 dmamode=2 udmamode=5 cblid=1 Promise check1 failed ad6: 38166MB <WDC WD400BB-00AUA1>[77545/16/63] at ata3-master UDMA66 ata1-master: piomode=4 dmamode=2 udmamode=-1 dmaflag=1 ata1-master: success setting PIO4 on generic chip acd0:<LG CD-RW CED-8080B/1.04> CD-RW Drive at ata1 as master acd0: read 5512 KB/s (3271 KB/s) write 1377 KB/s (1377 KB/s), 2048 KB buffer, PIO4 acd0: Reads: CD-R, CD-RW, CD-DA stream, packet acd0: Writes: CD-R, CD-RW, test write acd0: Audio: play, 255 volume levels acd0: Mechanism: ejectable tray acd0: Medium: CD-R 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0c start_init: trying /sbin/init start_init: trying /sbin/oinit start_init: trying /sbin/init.bak start_init: trying /stand/sysinstall /stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
