booting DragonFly BSD from a CD ends with a kernel panic. A screenshot of the console is attached. The machine is a Dell PowerEdge M610 blade. The same problem occurs on both of our M610s, one with older 45nm Xeons and one with newer 32nm Xeons. I'd like to run some performance benchmarks of the Hammer file system on the machines, so a fully working SMP system with ACPI support is probably needed. If you need more debugging information, please let me know how to get it. A piece of advice on how to circumvent this issue would be very helpful. :-)Which CD did you use? "CPU APIC ID" does not exist in the code base at all. I suggest you to try: http://avalon.dragonflybsd.org/snapshots/x86_64/DragonFly-x86_64-LATEST-ISO.iso.bz2
Thank you for your suggestion. The CD I tried before was dfly-x86_64-2.8.2_REL.iso. With the CD you suggest, the boot process freezes due to a problem with the keyboard driver (screenshot attached). The keyboard is somehow emulated by Dell's iDRAC and the remote console software, so it's not a common piece of hardware. But both Linux and OpenIndiana run just fine on the same machine. Andrej
