Re: 5.3 STABLE Boot CD Fails on PPRO 200 (BTX halted)
Thanks for the ideas. It appears this machine has a pretty crippled BIOS from dell. There's no way to turn off DMA. So, I'm just going to stick with booting from the floppies for installs as required. Thanks for the thoughts. At least I've got something to work with if I run into this on another machine.

Re: 5.3 STABLE Boot CD Fails on PPRO 200 (BTX halted)
It's a Dell XPS Pro 200n system tag 72V98 CPU: Pentium Pro 200MHz Chipset: Intel 82440FX Memory: 128MB ECC SIMM BIOS: A06 released 01/08/1998 (the last bios for this computer) IDE: (MSI DVD drive) (bootable secondary channel master) (Maxtor 40GB hard disk) (bootable primary channel master) I've also installed a promise ATA/133 card and tried to boot the computer with the CD and hard drive attached to that instead of the system board. However, that fails as well. I've gone ahead an installed from the floppies with the IDE devices attached to the motherboard. For some reason the floppies boot fine.

Probably not a hardware failure, but certainly a misbehaving BIOS or bootable card. What system/motherboard is this?

Re: 5.3 STABLE Boot CD Fails on PPRO 200 (BTX halted)
No, l, I didn't think it was me since the release CD's from ftp.freebsd.org also fail to boot. They give the same erorr messages with different memory addresses. But, I can recomplie with -0. I doubt that will work either. Best regards, Edwin On Wed, 02 Mar 2005 21:25:30 -0800, Michael C.
