: OK updated and tried nata on my A8V based box with two opticals and :a SATA hard disk - I got a boot time trap (output and trace with arguments :elided below - if the trace arguments would help I can probably do it again :and type them up): : :kbd0 at atkbd0 :kernel trap 12 with interrupts disabled : : :Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode :fault virtual address = 0x0 :fault code = supervisor read, page not present :instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc03c05fc
Please nm -n kernel.debug (for the kernel binary that caused the panic) and locate the symbols that occur before and after the instruction pointer, c03c05fc. This is cockpit trouble somewhere, but I don't know where. Also try doing a verbose boot (boot -v) and see if we get more meaningful console output just before the crash. -Matt Matthew Dillon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
