RE: BTX loader fails on Gateway ALR 9200

2005-06-22 Thread Brian Duke
  Please give freebsd version.  Also, what other operating systems have
  failed to load for you?   How exactly does the boot fail?  Any error
  messages?  Describe in detail.
 
 
 I have an abundance of information all I need to know is what to say that
 will help.
 
 The OS I am loading is currently FreeBSD 5.3
 I went to adaptec and found some information about FreeBSD 4.11 so I
 tried.
 I can get Solaris 10 to load but it fails to find the raid as a valid
 drive.
 Fedora Core 2 also boots and says it can't find a drive.
 The Raid boots up fine and builds with no faults.
 
 When I install a little 850 meg IDE drive and set that to master,
 Still the btx loader dies. Here is what the final screen says:
 
 /boot/kernel/acpi.ko text=0x3fbfc data=0x1c04+0x112c
 syms=[0x4+0x72f0+0x4+0x97c7]
 /
 int=000d  err=  efl=00030002  eip=5755
 eax=0001  ebx=0008  ecx=39ff  edx=0082
 esi=579c  edi=e873  edi=03ba  esp=037e

05 00 c2 ee 05 00 00 f0-00 00 1a 7d c4 5e dd e6
 BTX Halted
 
 I think I copied all that correctly.
 

Has anyone got a quick idea why this fails right off?
Does this mean I need to set the same flags as what Adi Pircalabu suggested
in the help !!! thread?

 When the boot menu appears, try this:
- escape to loader prompt
- set hint.acpi.0.disabled=1
- set hint.atkbd.0.flags=0x9
- boot

Would this help me? In this case I'm lost here.

1 adaptec 3200S scsi card running modified raid 5

6 drives. 2 sets of striped 3 and mirrored.

 

I am having a difficult time finding anything that will load in this box.

Please give freebsd version.  Also, what other operating systems have
