Hello, I hope you are well. I've been working on a Sun Blade 2000 with FreeBSD 9.0 (sparc64) installed. There's trouble with /boot/loader.conf when you try to boot the install disc (and even after the install when I try to boot up): panic: kmem_suballoc: bad status return of 3 cpuid = 0 KDB: stack backtrace: #0 0xc079841c at ??+0 #1 0xc04ca59c at ??+0 #2 0xc0487f90 at ??+0 #3 0xc0098028 at ??+0 So when it gives me the chance to enter a boot command, I enter the following: OK set hw.physmem=1048576000 OK boot That seems to do the trick. And I've since added it to loader.conf so I don't have to enter the command each time I boot up. Please let me know if there's anything I can do as I'd like my machine to be able to utilize the full memory capabilities. Thank you, Garrett Groesbeck garrett.groesbeck@gmail.com
