Well, I don't think that ttyv0 would be the problem in this case. See, the machine just hangs with a fatal trap immediately after the boot loader attempts to boot the kernel. The whole thread with ttyv0 seems to be an issue only when /etc/rc.conf is read. So, basically the page fault is occuring way at the beginning of the boot process long before the console driver is even loaded. 8-( - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
