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. -- wbr, pluknet ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: FreeBSD kernel doesn't boot on FUJITSU PRIMERGY RX200 S5 server
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: http://sobomax.sippysoft.com/ScreenShot605.png Any comments? -Maxim ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
