I'm afraid I don't quite understand how that desribes the fix to my
problem (Freezing on boot after having probed a non-existant vga1 and
sc1). What I did do, I went into sys/dev/fb/vga.c and commented out
the second vga head detection. Works beautifully now, though it
would be better to actually figure out why it was finding another vga
card. Still, it's up and running.
Now, if I could just figure out why ppp doesn't work (keeps complaining about
"tun0: Warning: Add route failed: 0.0.0.0: errno: Network is unreachable",
dials, and then sits and does nothing.)
