Can't work out which disk we are booting from
Hi, I have installed freebsd 7.1 on a 8GB usb flash drive. Now, it seems that the freebsd loader is unable to identify the usb disk where is booting from(da0s1a). The loader runs fine from the stick but gets confused on the drive it runs from, and the kernel it's not loaded. Here is what the loader prints out: [...] Bios drive A: is disk0 [...] Can't work out which disk we are booting from. Guessed BIOS device 0x80 not found by probes, defaulting to disk0: can't load 'kernel' I installed grub too and grub is loading the freebsd loader just fine, but the freebsd loader still get confused. Unfortunately I wasn't able to load the kernel (/boot/kernel/kernel) directly from grub.

Can't work out which disk we are booting from.
I upgraded my system from 6.2 to 7.0 using cvsup. I'm using ULE and device polling. After doing make installworld and reboot, the system don't boot anymore. I have some variables in make.conf, but I don't know if this the cause of the problem. CPUTYPE?=p3 CFLAGS= -O2 -pipe -funroll-loops -ffast-math COPTFLAGS= -O2 -pipe -funroll-loops -ffast-math Any ideas of how to fix this? Thanks a lot Can't work out which disk we are booting from.

Guessed BIOS device 0x not found by probes defaulting to disk0: What should i do? Boot the disk1 CD and select the fixit disk. Then run dmesg and look through the output. You are looking for a device whose name looks something like either ad0 or da0 The number [0] on the end indicates which drive device. All of the disk drives on the machine should show up in dmesg. If you are using a raid controller, the names might be something like mfid0 but still include the da0, da1, ... identifiers for the drives used in the raid. In that case you only want to use the mfid[n] identifier and not the individual device names. Is there a reason you need to know the DIOS device numeric identifier? I have never had to use it for anything. jerry Thanks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
