Re: Kernel boot hangs during installation

2005-11-02 Thread Paulino Calderon
I still cant get a clue about why it hangs, i got a copy of the 6.0 rc1 and
why i try to install it using boot -v the computer shut down apparently when
it tries to load the acpi.ko, so i i tried using unset acpi_load and boot -v
again, and still i cant get any clue about why it hangs, as soon as i hit
enter the computer freezes...
Any ideas?

Ps: I resent this message bc i accidently changed the subject.

 Well first I tried to install freebsd 5.4 without success, i cant get it to
 boot, my installation cd works ( ive tried on different machines ), I get
 the menu with the ASCII daemon and let the countdown time out, but then it
 hangs when it tries to boot the kernel. Ive tried the acpi off and safe mode
 and the same thing happens, so i thought this might be a incompatibility
 problem so i waited and tried the 6.0 RC1 and still no luck, any help or
 orientation you can give me would be really appreciated, thanks.

Try selecting the safe mode to boot, and you should at least be able
to get through installation.  Then you'll be able to debug the
specific problems more easily.

Yesterday I bought a new machine that wouldn't boot with the APIC
enabled.  I'll have to figure out how to fix that as soon as possible,
but for now it works fine, just a little slower than it should.

Oops. Sorry about missing that the first time.

Try the verbose boot and see if you get a hint what it's choking on.
