Hello!
About myself:
I have no great knowledge about FreeBSD. I use mostly the WebGUI of
pfSense, but i have some years experience on Debian GNU/Linux,
including building a custom kernel.
My Problem:
I have bought a new machine with an AMD Phenom II X3 Processor that has
3 Cores. I want to use pfSense on it and until now i tried version
1.2.3-RC1.
When booting the default system the kernel hangs after 'SMP: AP CPU#2
Launched!'
I have already found the exact reason, it's a bug with sched_ule + SMP,
take a look at:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/120138
My questions now are:
Is there a version of pfSense (at least in RC-Stage) that includes
already the patch for this bug?
If not, i have to compile a patched custom kernel:
What do i have to do to just recompile the kernel and its modules (not
the whole world)?
As far as i understand i need the exact kernel-version and the
configuration-file that is used for pfSense 1.2.3-RC1. Where do i find
these things?
Is the developer-installation the complete environment i need to build
a kernel?
If i know these things i hope that i am able to build a kernel with the
documentation at http://www.freebsd.org/docs.html.
I hope that you can help me :)
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Walter Kugler
