I would suggest, if at all possible, to first download and burn an install CD with 6.2 and then cvsup (csup) that to the latest world and ports, build and install world and kernel and then try again. It is possible that the version of X you are getting is out of sync with the OS you are using. That is only one possibility among others, but is one of the easiest to eliminate by bringing everything up to date. It then makes other possibilities easier to examine also. jerry Thanks, Thomas H Bellus ___ 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]

Dell PE 2500 install FreeBSD 5.4 freeze
Hi everyone, I have a Poweredge 2500, dual 1GHz cpu, BIOS A07, PERC 3/DI v2.8-0 bios (build 6089), that I'm trying to install 5.4 on. I boot from CD, with or without ACPI, and it freezes after it recognizes the second of two RAID containers. It detects the first container, 3-18GB drives aacd0 as RAID 5 on aac0, and the second container 3-32GB drives aacd1 on aac0 correctly, then freezes. I can toggle numlock - until the 15 second wait for SCSI drives to settle times out - then it's locked up. I've seen (google searches, and newsgroup archives) where some folks have various versions of FreeBSD running on PE 2400 and PE 2550 servers, but so far no PE 2500. Anyone running any version of FreeBSD on a 2500?
