Before you go any further, just compile a GENERIC kernel and see
if the same problems are experienced. Then start merging in what
you have in your custom kernel (line by line or section by section).

I once deleted the syscons device, other similar things are possible.

I did just notice something.. why would I have sc0/sc1 and
vga0/vga1? Or is that just because of the  'options SC_PIXEL_MODE'
that I have?

Would the controller I have my drives on really cause that? Seems kind of
strange :)..

Well, this isn't the monitor, of course.  Your system is probably
dying a horrible death and not producing any video output.

Well, it's not a good idea to put both disks on the same controller
anyway.  What happens if you put the disks on the primaries of each
controller, and the CD-ROMS on the secondaries?  If that doesn't help,
does the system at least work without the 45 GB drive?  Anyway, how
far do you get in the book process?  Can you get into single user mode
the way you are now?

Monitor dies and doesn't come back.

2000-08-27 Thread Systems Administrator

I've been having a strange problem recently after installing a new
harddrive.. the harddrive works fine in other OS's, but in FreeBSD,
(seemingly after the HD install), the Monitor (CTX VL19") goes into
powersaving and you cant get it back without doing a cold reboot.. not
even a warm reboot will work.  I am not sure exactly what is happening
here, perhaps something borked? I have a Western Digital Caviar 45GB drive
running at UDMA33.
