After rebooting system comes up with destroyed raid configuration. System is a Tyan S2466 with two Athlon MP and Promise Fasttrak TX2000, with two raids (2x2 drives raid 0) configured. First raid has a Windows installation, on the second one i want to install FreeBSD. The magic moment is during normal setup via sysinstall. Right after configuring the disk slices and after 'newfs' is executed, i can see the 'copying files' screen come up for a second and a messagebox, too, with the message 'SIG 11 - Automatic Shutdown'. After reboot, as said, raid is destroyed and must be rebuilt. Further problem: When trying to do a binary upgrade from a Release 5.1 installation (which is working btw.) i get a kernel panic with message 'lost mount' right at the point when system is 'checking file system integrity' after choosing/making new slices. >How-To-Repeat: Fresh installation: 1. Insert installation CD (ISO image from FTP server) 2. Boot from CD 3. Make sure, ACPI is on and SMP is activated, too 4. Choose normal installation 5. Set up disk slices, package configuration and so on 6. Choose any boot loader config, doesn't matter 7. Hit ok to start making filesystems 8. When system tries to copy files, system automatically reboots and raid is destroyed. Update: 1. Make sure you have a running 5.1 Release 2. Boot from 5.2.1 install CD. 3. Choose 'binary upgrade' 4. Choose existing slices and mountpoints. 5. When system says 'checking filesystem integrity' right after accepting configuration, kernel panics with message 'lost mount'. 6. As above, aber hitting reset button system comes up with destroyed raid configuration. >Fix: None. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
