Re: G5 panic on boot from install media
I tried with -current (22/08) this morning and it does not panic. It hangs after this message: WARNING: unable to get date/time -- CHECK AND RESET THE DATE! Just after the rootdev= line. Also for Miod, It show the same message 'uhub0: device problem, disabling port 2'. I tried other ports as well as other usb keyboards (all apple though) and still no luck. Also, maybe worth mentioning: someone made that appropriate remark that the PowerMac G5 Dual-cores are marked as unsupported in the hardware compatibility pages (In the INSTALL file it says PowerMac G5 are supported, but I assume that's for the other models.) I am willing to work toward support for this machine so if any developper has something they want to test on it, send it to me.
G5 panic on boot from install media
I recently bought a G5 and tried to install 3.9 on it (from the official CD). It is an PowerMac G5 Dual-core 2Ghz. It panic'd with this message while booting bsd.rd (re-typed so some typos may creep in): WARNING: unable to get date/timepanic: lockmgr: locking against myself Stopped at Debugger+0x10: lwz r0,20(r1) I cannot give trace and ps output because apparently the usb keyboard is not supported (or does not work in ddb) It is worth mentioning that this panic occured just after a complete boot of the kernel. (Meaning it the line just before what I wrote was the rootdev=...) Does anybody have an idea what can I do to get trace/ps output. Should I try -current?
Re: G5 panic on boot from install media
I cannot give trace and ps output because apparently the usb keyboard is not supported (or does not work in ddb) That's odd. It should work. Do you get ukbd attachment lines between the ``root on'' line and the ``rootdev='' line? Does anybody have an idea what can I do to get trace/ps output. Should I try -current? It never hurts, although I doubt this would improve the situation. But then you might be able to get us a ddb trace, which would help narrowing the problem. Miod
