 Hi, Maxim.

 I tried to boot 9.0-CURRENT amd64 snapshot on IBM x3650 M2 and seems have
 the
 same problem, i set hints from loader prompt, but this didn't help.
 Can you explain what you did to boot FreeBSD faster?


Hmm.. That's strange to hear.
We have in production a number of x3650m2: 7.2-R, 7.3-R (all amd64).
All runs flawlessly.
 I'll try to boot it from head today if that matters.

It was about 1.5 hour ago when i entered autoboot in loader prompt.
It still show slowly rotated dash line at end of
/boot/kernel/kernel text=x |

I've seen this happen when there were problems with the serial port, either
missing or miss-configured.

HTH,

Re: FreeBSD kernel doesn't boot on FUJITSU PRIMERGY RX200 S5 server

2010-04-20 Thread Maxim Sobolev
Update: I've discovered that the 7.3 kernels actually boot after some 
ridiculously long waiting period after the boot command (i.e. 10 
minutes or even more). I suspect that it might be caused by the memory 
probing, which as far as I know the FreeBSD does to determine if the 
physical memory that has been reported by BIOS really exists.


Here is what kernel reports about RAM:

Any comments?

Maybe try adding

hint.atkbdc.0.disabled=1
hint.atkbd.0.disabled=1

to /boot/device.hints?  That has reportedly removed minute-long boot delays on 
some Nehalem machines.

No, that have not helped at all. I measured the delay - it's about 6
minutes from boot command to the first smap message. Do you or anybody 
else have other ideas?
