Re: alix2d3 entry point at 0x200120 after PXE installation
Hi all, I succeed to boot the alix2d3 by fixing the MBR with fdisk -u wd0 Cheers, Aurelien
Re: alix2d3 entry point at 0x200120 after PXE installation
Hi all,
Unfortunately, I still get the reboot after the installation on my alix2d3.
I already installed a Debian image into the flash with success so the flash
seems fine.
I need a custom disklabel so maybe it's where it failed.
Let me do a resume of my configuration and all I did.
Thanks for your support,
Cheers,
Aurelien

Hi all,
I would like to thanks all to your fast feedback and support
I'm moving my flat so I cannot test for these days. On Thursday I'll
receive a new USB - DB9 Null modem cable and a flash card reader.
So the next days I'll update this feed with my observation, tests and
steps to achieve it through PXE. As mentioned if it doesn't work I'll put
directly OBSD 5.4 on the flash.
Have a good day
Aurelien

From the FAQ (http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq7.html#SerCon)
Resist the urge to crank the baud rate up to the maximum your
hardware can support, as you are more likely to create problems
than benefit. Most systems have a default speed (supported by
default by the boot ROM and/or the boot loader, often 9600), use
this unless you have real reason to use something different.
Huh? My ALIX 2D13 works fine with 115200 - no quirks.
38400

Did you, Aurelien use a quality CF-card? That is very important. Is the power supply sound? Even the 2D3 may be defective (rarely) and e.g. PC-Engines swaps them on warranty free. Sorry I didn't upgrade to 5.4 yet. I installed OpenBSD 5.3 onto the CF-card while it was connected to a MACbook Air via a USB-adaptor and used the network install. Then I inserted the CF-card into the ALIX 2D13 and booted. No problems. See OBSD FAQ 14.17.3. Maybe Aurelien, you want to try this before you send the board back to the supplier.

Re: alix2d3 entry point at 0x200120 after PXE installation
Hi Aurelien, I've got same boards at work, I saw no problems installing obsd on top of them. Few steps I always follow: 1. In pxe boot.conf file: sty com0 38400 set tty com0 boot tftp:/bsd54.rd 2. start DHCP server + tftp on my laptop 3. hit n during the RAM test to boot in PXE mode 4. install with default settings AFAIK the default serial port speed is 38400 not 57600 Romain -Original Message- From: owner-m...@openbsd.org [mailto:owner-m...@openbsd.org] On Behalf Of Aurelien Martin Sent: vendredi 29 novembre 2013 13:10 To: misc@openbsd.org Subject: alix2d3 entry point at 0x200120 after PXE installation Hi all, I installed openbsd-54 on a flash card on my alix2d3 board through PXE with a nullmodem cable.

The com port speed may be changed in the bios menu.
