Southern Illinois University at Carbondale
>Release:        2.2.6-RELEASE
>Environment:
Dell OptiPlex-GX1 with:
PentiumII-Pro (400Mhz?), 128MB RAM, (E)IDE 4GB Maxtor HD, 32x Toshiba (ATAPI) CD-ROM,
Iomega Zip 100, EtherlinkXL 10/100Mb (3C905B-TX), Dell 1025TM monitor, ATI-3D RAGE Pro
with 4MB SGRAM, Pheonix Systems(?) 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.
