Hi All, I ran into a problem installing FreeBSD 5.2.1-STABLE on an old PC (Am5x86, 133MHz, 40M RAM, 700M HDD). After I finish the install and reboot the PC under FreeBSD it fails to load the kernel. Here's what is on the screen (manually copied): Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x45d64c - elf32_loadexec: archsw.readin failed /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x45d64c - elf32_loadexec: archsw.readin failed /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x45d64c - elf32_loadexec: archsw.readin failed Unable to find a kernel! | Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt. Booting [/boot/kernel/kernel] ... /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x45d64c - elf32_loadexec: archsw.readin failed can't load 'kernel' I successfully installed the same system on several other modern PCs. Can anyone assist me in solving this problem and making FreeBSD boot up? -- Best regards, Sergey mailto:skhenkin@gmail.com
