Hi, I'm trying to install FreeBSD on my HP Pavilion (AMD Phenom 8650 Triple Core 2.3 GHz, Hitachi SCSI disk drive, booting from ATAPI DVD ROM). I am booting with verbose logging turned on. When the boot process reaches the line "Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0c" a series of messages saying "t_delta [long number] too short/too long" appear for several minutes. When "/stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0" is finally reached, more of the messages appear. Finally, sysinstall is started, but keyboard response is very slow. After, a few minutes a kernel panic occurs "spin lock held too long" and the computer reboots. I've seen bug reports with this sort of kernel panic, but not during installation. Thanks in advance, Zach
