BIOS A01, Soundblaster Pro 3.2, Yamaha OPL-3 FM (S/W synthesizer) >Description: Installation boot from Atapi CD-ROM stops at "Probing devices, please wait....". Alternate console display shows: DEBUG: ioctl(3,TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (success) DEBUG: Found a network device named lp0 Scrolling back shows 128MB RAM recognized , 6 PCI/ISA chips, "no driver assigned" to the 3C905B-TX, HD/CDROM/mouse/floppy all found, buggy Zip drive (wfd0:) found, "npx0 flags 0x1 on motherboard", "npx0: INT 16 interface", "rootfs is 1440 Kbyte compiled in MFS", "/stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0" Nothing happens at this point. Currently there are no other NIC's and the 3C905B-TX is integrated onto the motherboard so it cannot be removed. I built a custom 2.2.6 kernel which included pnp0 and MAXMEM on another machine and tried to use it with FBSDBOOT (from a DOS partition). It would stop after the device probes and a blinking cursor would appear. >How-To-Repeat: Boot FBSD kernel. >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
