Hi I observe the following strange endless loop when booting from the installation floppies on my amd duron system.
1) booting from kern disk is ok -> i do get till promt asking for mfsroot disk 2) continuing with mfsroot disk gets me to promt hit return or wait 10 sec to boot kernel. 3) booting kernel is ok till it prints scsi waiting 15 seconds for scsidevices to settle After this 15 seconds i only see a single line or two (cant tell exactly) scrolling endlessly repeated over the screen. It semms as if probing for for the non existent scsi harddrives sends the kernel into an endless loop. I have to admit i use the 53c974 scsi controller as a mor advanced and extended paralleport for my mustek scsi scanner. -----My Hardware and a bit more----- Architektur : i386 CD-ROM CD-ROM Drive/F5E HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B CPU AMD Athlon(tm) Processor Display Vanta [NV6] Festplatte ST340015A QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 30 Monitor 103050 NetzwerkgerÃte 3C905B Fast Etherlink XL 10/100 Speichermedium Floppy-Controller Bus Master IDE 53c974 [PCscsi] TV-Karte Hauppauge WinTV Tastatur PC Keyboard fbdev Riva TNT ide ST340015A CD-ROM Drive/F5E HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4082B QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 30 pci VT8363/8365 [KT133/KM133] VT8363/8365 [KT133/KM133 AGP] VT82C686/A PCI to ISA Bridge Bus Master IDE VT82C686 [Apollo Super ACPI] 3C905B Fast Etherlink XL 10/100 53c974 [PCscsi] Hauppauge WinTV WinTV/GO Vanta [NV6] Or could it bee that my soundblaster live is not responding properly either or better at all ?
