Hello all, especially Aurelien. It is still unclear what the real reason is, so far only acpi enable boots are affected. I together with Emmanuel Bouthenot investigated yet more, it looks like the problem lies in interaction between gnu linker and grub bootloader.
May be only GRUB 2 (d-i) based installation are affected, the kfreebsd-loader (sysinstall hacked installer) loads acpi.ko from 7.2-5 fine for me. Aurelien, please could you do upload of kfreebsd-7 and kfreebsd-8 from current svn. The drop of .comment section have been sufficient to convert failing acpi.ko into fine one ... The current kfreebsd-8 from SVN boots and works fine for me in QEMU, modulo lock order reversal: 1st 0xc3177250 bufwait (bufwait) @ kern/vfs_bio.c:2559 2nd 0xc35b2c00 dirhash (dirhash) @ ufs/ufs/ufs_dirhash.c:285 lock order reversal: 1st 0xc35f49c4 ufs (ufs) @ kern/vfs_mount.c:1200 2nd 0xc35f4df4 devfs (devfs) @ kern/vfs_subr.c:2083 Petr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
