Re: Cannot Boot with Intel D201GLY Motherboard
perhaps the geometry reported by the pciide(4) driver differs from the one determined by the BIOS, Nope. I cannot get OpenBSD to boot on my D201GLY motherboard even without the Promise IDE controller plugged in. (I've tried both with and without the Promise IDE controller.) However, the best option would be to simply acquire an old beige box and install OpenBSD and back up the files to another system on your network. Unfortunately, this seems to be my only option. It is not good that OpenBSD will not boot on the D201GLY motherboard. :-( Thanks, Kenneth J. Hendrickson

Given the fact that the machine boots just fine from the CD you could try the following: 1. Boot from CD; interrupt the bootloader. 2. type boot hd0a:/bsd If that doesn't work, you can try disabling device drivers. 1.

Re: Cannot Boot with Intel D201GLY Motherboard
Hi Ken, Unfortunately I cannot see your attachments.. as the lists do not permit them. As this is a strictly a recovery operating, ffsrv is rumoured to work for some people on Windows.. but it probably won't help you because of the ccd(4) setup. I cannot explain the problem you're facing, but it is possible that perhaps the geometry reported by the pciide(4) driver differs from the one determined by the BIOS, confusing the boot loader. One entirely unsupported option might be to use QEMU for Windows to access the raw disks, i.e: if there are 3 drives in the computer. (Examples..) \\.\PhysicalDrive0 == Windows 2000 boot drive. \\.\PhysicalDrive1 == OpenBSD device, start of ccd(4). \\.\PhysicalDrive2 == OpenBSD drive, end of ccd(4). Create an image with qemu-img(1), hdd.img for example.. enough for OpenBSD. C:\QEMU\qemu.exe -L. -m 256 -hda hdd.img -hdb \\.\PhysicalDrive1 -hdc \\.\PhysicalDrive2 -cdrom install45.iso -boot d Now presumably you could install OpenBSD inside QEMU, baring any bugs in the emulation.. wd1/wd2 should be the 2 physical devices, and the labels you created on them should remaining, you'll simply need to setup ccd(4) inside the environment and then backup the files to your host system. However, the best option would be to simply acquire an old beige box and install OpenBSD and back up the files to another system on your network. http://ffsdrv.sf.net/ http://www.h7.dion.ne.jp/~qemu-win/ http://www.freecycle.org/ HTH. -Brynet

Hi sthen, OpenBSD 4.5 shipped with APIC/IOAPIC in the SP kernel, it's not longer needed to boot MP kernels. :-) -Brynet.

There must be a requirement which is not stated in the documentation, which I am not following. Please help. (I am an experienced OpenBSD user, having used OpenBSD continuously since 1998, and having built my own kernels/userland, and also have built OpenBSD for embedded systems.) The instructions for booting from NTLDR (Windows 2000) do not work. As soon as the messages get to the CPU, the system reboots. Booting never works, either from the OpenBSD partition, or from NTLDR from Windows 2000. I have included my OpenBSD.PDR file for examination. Originally, my OpenBSD partition was #4 in fdisk. I added the #1 partition, and had both #1 and #4 set to a6 for OpenBSD. That didn't work. I then chose only #1 partition to be a6 for OpenBSD, and #4 partition was set to da for No Filesystem. That also didn't work. Please note that my entire OpenBSD / filesystem is within the 1024 cylinder boundary. The /boot file is totally contained within the 1024 cylinder boundary. It still won't boot. It won't boot on its own, nor will it boot from the Windows 2000 NTLDR bootloader. Also note that while my fdisk and disklabel indicates Linux partitions, none of them have yet been installed. I installed Windows 2000 first, then OpenBSD. Since I could never get OpenBSD to boot, I have not yet installed Linux. Please help if you can. Thank you, Kenneth J.
