Just got one line further! Haha.

Re: During install: device Probe freezes after detecting Ethernet address
I've actually been able to get past this part once. It continued into the installation menu. I was able to configure the system and then when I set it to boot from the CD/DVD, it said that the CD/DVD drive isn't supported. Did some Googling and apparently that even though the BIOS recognizes my DVD (and thus loaded the installation menu from it) doesn't mean that the FreeBSD installation recognizes my DVD drive. According to FreeBSD's site, it should recognize any ATAPI CD/DVD drive, which it is according to the BIOS. I went back into the BIOS and realized that the drive was being recognized, however, as slave and not master, so I reconnected it as slave (confirmed this in the BIOS) and rebooted, speculating that this is the underlying issue of FreeBSD not supporting my CD/DVD drive. However, now I cannot get past this point (after probing the Ethernet address) in the device probe in order to continue on to the FreeBSD installation menu. Any ideas...? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/During-install%3A-device-Probe-freezes-after-detecting-Ethernet-address-tp21333686p21335636.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
During install: device Probe freezes after detecting Ethernet address
I'm trying to install FreeBSD 7.0 from CDs I made a few months ago on a brand new system with parts I just got in from NewEgg. I select the default option from the Boot Loader and it goes into the device probe. Several devices are recognized, but then it freezes at: mskc0: port 0xe800-0xe8ff mem 0xf7ffc00 0-0xf7ff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci2 msk0: on mskc0 msk0: Ethernet address: 00:22:15:86:02:47 I don't see any errors on the screen, and I can't seem to scroll up to see if I'm missing one, but I don't think there is. I am using a CD, but the disk appears undamaged and is clean. All components appear to be recognized by the BIOS. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/During-install%3A-device-Probe-freezes-after-detecting-Ethernet-address-tp21333686p21333686.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
