I want to install freebsd maybe as a replacement for (gentoo) linux (on the long term), but I am experiencing some problems.
The booting process (kernel) of the installation media just halts. I've tried with acpi off but this didn't help. I thin it has something to do with ata/ide Verbose output gives me errors like these (probe0:ata0:0:0:0): error 22 (probe0:ata0:0:0:0): Unretryable Error (probe1:ata0:0:1:0): error 22 (probe1:ata0:0:1:0): Unretryable Error (probe0:ata0:0:0:0): error 22 (probe0:ata0:0:0:0): Unretryable Error (probe1:ata0:0:1:0): error 22 (probe1:ata0:0:1:0): Unretryable Error (probe3:ata1:0:1:0): error 22 (probe3:ata1:0:1:0): Unretryable Error (probe3:ata1:0:1:0): error 22 (probe3:ata1:0:1:0): Unretryable Error (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): error 22 (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): Unretryable Error (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): error 6 (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): Unretryable Error (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): error 22 (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): Unretryable Error (source: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-September/038318.html) My hardware: amd athlon 2500+ asus a7n8x (latest bios) 120GB IBM IDE - ATA harddisk dvd-writer plextor + cdrom drive geforce4 ti GPU ... I just want to run bsd ;) memtest gives me some errors so I think there is a ram module with some faults... (but I don't think this has something to do with it???) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
