Can't boot install cd (Compaq DL380)
hah, had to transcribe this whole thing with pen and paper since I couldn't think of any other way to copy it. I put the install cd in for FreeBSD 4.10, turn on the server, hit [Enter] to boot immediately instead of going to command prompt. in the Kernel Configuration menu, I just skip and boot the default kernel. It finds devices that scroll accross the screen, network cards: NMI ISA a0, EISA ff RAM parity error, likely hardware failure Fatal Trap 19: non-maskable interrupt while in kernel mode instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc02f56a6 stack pointer = 0x10:0xc084bf20 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc084bf34 code segment= base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x16 = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags= interrupt enabled, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 (swapper) interrupt mask = net tty bio cam trap number = 19 panic: non-maskable interrupt trap Uptime: 0s This is a Compaq DL380 server (dual P3 733s and ECC RAM). I've swapped out each memory module with a known good memory module one by one, and every configuration still generates this error. OpenBSD and Redhat seem to run just fine on this machine too. What can I do? I don't understand what is generating this error exactly so I don't know where to start. The install cd for FreeBSD 4.9 generated the same error. The install cd for 5.1 hangs without error messages. if it is important for me to give you more information about that I will go test it again and write down the screen contents. What i really want is 4.10 though. Aaron signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Well, ok, I assume that you got a Dl 380 Generation 1, with the white case, and also 4U form factor, that has an ida RAID controller as PCI-card. I had one of those running with FreeBSD 4.7, later updated to 4.8-stable with cvsup. Ok, I had only one CPU in, and I had the OS type in SETUP set to NT4. Do not set to linux or SCO, that could impose problems. HTH Olaf -- Olaf Hoyer[EMAIL PROTECTED] Fuerchterliche Erlebniss geben zu raten, ob der, welcher sie erlebt, nicht etwas Fuerchterliches ist.

Hi! Well, ok, I assume that you got a Dl 380 Generation 1, with the white case, and also 4U form factor, that has an ida RAID controller as PCI-card. That is correct. I had one of those running with FreeBSD 4.7, later updated to 4.8-stable with cvsup. Ok, I had only one CPU in, and I had the OS type in SETUP set to NT4. Do not set to linux or SCO, that could impose problems. I checked the OS setting in Setup. It was set to NT, however changing it to anything besides NT only seemed to change one of the PCI boards from using IRQ 5 to use IRQ 10 instead. I don't think that would make the difference anyway, but what do I know. Any other ideas? Aaron signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

How might I have known the problem was related to the PCI NIC from the kernel output above? -- Aaron Peterson [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
