Re: Problem installing FreeBSD in M754LMR Motherboard.
Finally! I was able to install FreeBSD 4.7! Now, I'm going to upgrade to 5.0 but it must be with the source method because when I try to boot with the 5.0 installation CD it gives me the same error (the kernel has the AGP support on it) and it never can run sysinstall. So, as this is my first time with FreeBSD, for sure it's going to take me a little while to get it updated to 5.0 I just wanted to thank Lowell Gillbert and Bob Collins for their help. Many thanks!

Re: Problem installing FreeBSD in M754LMR Motherboard.
I did the minimal installation posible for 4.8 and when I reboot the kernel shows me the same error. I have tried everthing. Any other suggestion will be must than welcome.

Problem installing FreeBSD in M754LMR Motherboard.
Hello there, This is the fisrt time I'm trying to install FreeBSD. I really like the project and I decided to study it and learn from it. I have not been able to install it in my PC: Motherboard: M754LMR (http://www.pcchips.com.tw/M754LMR.html): Video adapter (onboard): NVIDIDA Aladdin TNT2 Devices (onboard): ALi M1533 PCI to ISA bridge ALi M1621 CPU to PCI bridge ALi M1621 PCI to AGP bridge Processor: Celeron 600MHz Memory: 192MB RAM (-16MB taken to video adapter NVIDIDA Aladdin TNT2 ) Hard Drive: 4GB The problem I'm having is that when the kernel start loading, it gives me the following error. ... pci0: on pcib0 agp0: mem 0xd800-0xdbff at device 0.0 on pci0 panic: contigmalloc1: size must not be 0 Uptime: 0s Automatic reboot in 15 seconds I have search for a posible solution but I have not found anything helpfull. I flash the EPROM of the motherboard with the last version (ftp://ftp.pcchips.com.tw/BIOS/M754LMR/) and it din't work. I'm getting the same error for FreeBSD 4.8 release or 5.1 current, but in different moments. With FreeBSD 4.8 release the installation reach the "Configure X Server" section and allways fail when I specify the video card I have. Then, when I reboot, I receive the error message mentioned above. With FreeBSD 5.1 current the error is show when the Installation CD boots and try to load the kernel. Can someone tell me if this motherboard and configuration is not supported by FreeBSD? What can I do to get my FreeBSD running in this configuration?
