OK, I got a little further today.  I'm typing all of this by hand 
since there is no access to the keyboard on the system once I get 
it to boot.

EFI Boot Manager ver 1.02 [12.38]

{ I skipped the echo line and used boot instead of autoboot }
OK boot

The kernel loads and then the sysinstall program runs.  At that
point the keyboard and mouse no longer work.

One interesting thing I saw, it appears the load command is 
"smart enough" to append a ".gz" to the end of a filename 
passed to it on it's commandline.

thanks for the assistance on this.

Are you using a USB keyboard ?

Yes, that's what came with the system.

I just took another look at the back of the system and I did see 
legacy PS2 keyboard/mouse ports.  I didn't notice them the first 
time I set it up.  I'll try to boot it again with legacy parts 
plugged in and then posts results.

thanks

WooHoo, that it was it.

Now that I have a working keyboard/mouse I've managed to mess up 
the 1st hard drive.  When I got to the fdisk section I chose use 
the entire drive which blew away the EFI(sp?) partition.  Now I 
can't boot at all. :-(  Oh well, I can probably fix that problem.  
Guess you need to leave that partition, eh?

thanks for the kick in the right direction.

:-)

Some notes:

1. We cannot get the USB stack to work on the BigSur yet. It appears
   that the moment we reset the 460GX, we reset the USB host controller
   and it's dead from that moment on. Resetting the machine may or may
   not fix this the first time around. I've had to reset the machine
   twice before an USB keyboard started to work again (in EFI).
   As such, we don't have support for the UHCI host controller in the
   kernel by default. Please do not add support without making sure
   you have a backup kernel that works :-)
2. The installer does not know how to create GPT based partitions yet.
   If a machine already has a GPT, it's probably a good idea to pre-
   partition. The installer should be smart enough to detect and use
   a GPT based FreeBSD partition. Note that the installer still insists
   on having a disklabel, so the GPT partition type should then be:
	516e7cb4-6ecf-11d6-8ff8-00022d09712b
   Don't worry if I'm not making sense to you :-)
3. On an empty disk, you can use the installer to partition it, but
   it will be a legacy (ie PC) MBR partition. You have to create an
   EFI partition by hand and you have to give it a mount point so
   that the installer will put the loader, kernel and modules on the
   EFI partition. Failure to do so will result in an unformatted
   (and thus useless) EFI partition and consequently an unbootable
   disk.

FYI,

I am so glad that I've contributed to the mailing list archive 
search capability. :-)

Once I bring the system back to life I will avoid setting up USB.

thanks again for the assistance.

Hi, all,

I just downloaded freebsd 5.0 and want to install it on
Intel tiger 4 system. The kernel can start up and prompt
installation interface. Because intel tiger 4 use usb
keyboard and mouse, therefore I could not use usb keyboard
and mouse to continue install system. I examine the system
and find a serial console. I do not know if freebsd 
installation can use serial console to install. If can,
how to change to serial console, because in intel tiger 4,
the VGA is on motherboard. I want to use serial console
to install ia64 system. If someone knows, please give me
a reply. Thanks in advance!

Barry

When the kernel autoboot is counting down, hit space to
interrupt it and type:
	boot -h

This gives you a serial console. See also:

Marcel, thanks for your help. 

I can use serial console to install. But also pause at the same place,
 because the serial console in tiger 4 is com2
not com1, then I have to build new kernel to support com2. But I could
not find any ia64 system at hand, The rest system is ia32. Can I build
ia64 kernel under ia32 freebsd environment? If can, how to do?

Besides, intel tiger 4 support ehci usb and lsi53c1030 scsi. I do not
know if freebsd 5.0 can support ehci and lsi53c1030 scsi. If so, where
can I find?

Barry

You should be able to make com2 the serial console in the boot loader.
Try:

	set hint.sio.0.flags="0x00"
	set hint.sio.1.flags="0x90"

The first line clears the flags that tells the kernel that com1 is
to be used as a serial console. The second line enables the flags
for com2.

You can.

Start a buildworld for ia64 on some i386 machine like this:

	cd /usr/src; make buildworld TARGET_ARCH=ia64

Once the buildworld has passed the point of building the cross-tools,
you can start building a kernel, like this:

	cd /usr/src; make buildkernel TARGET_ARCH=ia64

When in doubt as to when you can start the kernel build, wait for the
world build to finish (can take 2 hours).

I was afraid of EHCI. We don't have that yet. NetBSD has it and we
keep our USB implementation roughly the same, so it shouldn't be
too hard to port it over.

The SCSI controller is supported by the mpt(4) driver. It works fine.

Oops... Forgot to tell you what to do after the kernel build has
finished.

The best thing to do is to setup netbooting. That way you can
continue to build and tweak on the i386 and boot the ia64 box
over the network. This requires enabling tftp on the i386 (see
inetd.conf) and installing a DHCP server (I use the one in the
ports collection). If /tftpboot is where you have the tftp
server look for the files, you can put the kernel there like
this:

	cd /usr/src; make installkernel TARGET_ARCH=ia64 DESTDIR=/tftpboot

You also need the loader there. The easiest way for now is to just
install the whole world build. Once you get a feel for it, you'll
know how to minimize space. Install world like:

	cd /usr/src; make installworld TARGET_ARCH=ia64 DESTDIR=/tftpboot

Configure the DHCP server so that the loader is fetched from
	/tftpboot/boot/loader.efi

There are other ways as well, but they all differ in the extend of
FreeBSD knowledge one needs to have.

HTH,

I didn't see a response to this message. While VHPT < 2**15 isn't a
huge issue, this bug could result in other correctness problems.

New code that tries to use ia64_ptob(Maxmem) for something other than
VHPT sizing would be broken. And of course, it doesn't hurt to have a
bigger VHPT on large memory machines :)

Like machdep.c:164?

        printf("real memory  = %ld (%ld MB)\n", ia64_ptob(Maxmem),
            ia64_ptob(Maxmem) / 1048576);

As for the fact that Maxmem is in bytes and physmem isn't: we define
Maxmem to be equal to physmem (machdep.c:598). So they are in fact
equal.

Agreed. However, I'd like us to first get things to work without VHPT
(especially SMP) and then focus on getting a good VHPT implementation.
I think this way we'll have the best infrastructure. I have it planned
after EPC (I'm working on that right now).

What's the recommended tool to set the GPT partition type ?

That depends. If you're running Linux, use diskpart. If you only
have EFI, get Intel's EFI tool. When running FreeBSD, use gpt(8).

So far I always netboot a new machine and use gpt(8) to partition
the disk. newfs(8) the partitions and copy bits over. Then I reboot
the machine locally. Works like a charm. I hope we eventially get
good EFI tools and/or have a good partitioner in the installer to
deal with new machines.

G.morn'

I'm out of the office this morning, using the FreeBSD Hypertext 
Man Pages I don't see an entry for gpt(8).  Wandering through 
CVS web gave me the latest gpt.8.  I guess since ia64 is still 
considered "tier 2" that it's unique man pages aren't available 
yet via the online man pages?

thanks for the info.

Hi, Marcel, Thanks for your help. I can use com2 to install freebsd ia64
on intel tiger 4. I use the standard option and install the minimum.
But after installed, I eject cd, and reboot the system. It can not boot.
It can not find any freebsd partition info. on my hard disk under efi.
Why? Some steps are wrong for me? If someone knows, please give me a reply.

Thanks in advance!

Barry

Hmmm... good question. AFAICT, we don't prohibit or inhibit based
on the tier level. I guess in this case it's just a matter of how
the process is designed: we only build i386 because that was the
only platform we had when designing the process (probably).

I've cc'd doc@ on this. They should be able to give an authoritative
answer.

To doc:
1. Is the above correct?
2. Is there a way we could get the platform specific man pages
   included as well?

If there was a GPT on the disk already, then what's going on (likely) is
that EFI sees the GPT and ignores the MBR. The FreeBSD installer does not
know how to make a GPT partitioning, so it still uses MBR. This can be
resolved by creating a GPT partition with the EFI diskpart tool that has
the right type (see the mail I sent to Diana -- the one with the UUID in
it :-) and that has a matching partition start and size. That should be
it.

If there wasn't a GPT on the disk, then I have to speculate too much. So,
additional info is needed.

Of course what really needs to happen is that we teach our installer how to
create GPT partitions from the word go. Unfortunately, I'm not in the
position to open a jar of programmers and get it done. I can help coerse
people to being a committer if they provide good patches; right Peter? :-)

Linux uses GNU parted or a distribution specific tool. GNU parted
doesn't know about the FreeBSD GUID type nor does it allow entering
the guid type manually. It maps filesystem types to GUID types (by
design).

After I hacked GNU parted to map "hp-ufs" filesystem type to FreeBSD
GUID i.e. 516e7cb4-6ecf-11d6-8ff8-00022d09712b, I see:

Minor    Start       End     Filesystem  Name                  Flags
1          0.017    203.938  fat32                             boot
2        203.938  10447.875  fat32                             

< other partitions snipped>

1 -> EFI partition
2 -> FreeBSD partition (parted shows fat32, but the guid is correct)

# od -x /dev/sda 

shows the following

When I installed FreeBSD over this partition, the instalation went ok,
but when I reboot, EFI couldn't find fs0 any more. On further
investigation, I found that the FreeBSD installer had written the
partitioning info to MBR. Normally MBR contains a fake EFI
partition. After the FreeBSD installation, Linux fdisk showed that 

/dev/sda1       (0xee) EFI GPT had been deleted and replaced by
/dev/sda2       (0xa5) FreeBSD with the start and end corresponding to
                       the GPT partition I'd created for FreeBSD.

I went back and restored the MBR to it's original form, so that EFI
could look into the GPT. Now when I try to boot FreeBSD, it can't
find "ufs:da0s2a". 

So my question is, what do I need to do to the GPT to get FreeBSD
recognize it properly ? Have I screwed up on the endianness of the GUID ?
I'd like to see an octal dump of a working GPT, if possible.

1. Check your MBR. If it's been overwritten, restore it manually.
2. Boot from the CD. instead of using mfsroot.gz, specify:
        vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:da0s??"

And you should be able to boot.

This one is ok, because it's before line 598. Any code executed after

You're right. I got the name wrong.

Then parted is broken. A low-level tool should give low-level
access. It also makes certain assumptions that causes it to
enforce that the GPT managed space is always an even number of
sectors.

Correct. The installer knows how to use GPT, it just doesn't know
how to make one. The issue here is that sysinstall expects a two
leveled division. First the disk partitioning (slicing) and then
the disklabel partitioning. Under GPT we don't use disklabels
anymore by default. The UUID I mentioned has been reserved for
GPT based partitioning with disklabels.

Odd. Is the disklabel in the FreeBSD partition valid?

No. Endianness is always little-endian for GPT. You did it right.

At 2200 and 2400 are FreeBSD partitions. The first is an UFS partition,
the second is a swap partition. Yours should be a disklabel partition.

Your patch changes the granularity for Maxmem from pages to bytes.
On all architectures it should be pages. On i386 you see atop(),
which is the opposite of ia64_ptob().

Ah, you're right. I saw one incorrect usage of Maxmem and assumed that
Maxmem should be in bytes. So only necessary change then is:
