[Soekris] net4801-60 died

2007-09-19 Thread magnus . hagdorn

Hi there,
I wonder if you have any suggestions of what I could try next. My net4801-60 
based firewall (running IPCop) has suddenly died yesterday, after running for 
half a year without any problems. When I power up the unit the power LED comes 
on and the error LED keeps flashing. This suggests to me that the system 
doesn't even get to the BIOS?
Any suggestions?
Cheers
magi

Connect the console and see what happens.
The most common problems are defective power supply and early panic in
your operating system, which might be because of a corrupted CF.

[Soekris] net5501 SATA disk

2007-09-19 Thread SeDoFa
Hi list,

I've connected a 2.5 SATA drive to the Net5501 but it's not detected in bios.

It's a generic problem with any sata disk?

How to Resolve Problems?


Thank you

It's bug which has crept back into the bios, Søren is working on a fix.

Hi

I would pop out the CF and any other cards. That would at least  
narrow down the cause of the failure. Swapping the power supply is  
probably a good idea as well.

 Hi,
 
 I have recently bought a new net5501, it works fine except when i give 
 the device a reboot then he doesn't boots anymore from the hdd.
 
 I have seen that many people have the same problem. Is there anyone that 
 have a workaround or solutions for this problem ?

same problem here, too ;)  I guess it's a bios problem and I heard
rumours that it is being worked on.

Re: [Soekris] openbsd won't boot from net4801 after pxe installation

does this mean that the bootloader boot OpenBSD from address 0x200120 and
could not find the boot partition? do I have a faulty CF because of
pciide0:0:0: bus-master DMA error: missing interrupt, status=0x20?

Looks like the system isn't using the serial console.  Please try to
enter
boot set tty com0
boot set stty 19200
at the boot prompt and see how it goes.
If this works, put these lines in /etc/boot.conf.

  Looks like the system isn't using the serial console.

The installer asks near the end whether you'd like to use
a serial console. Answering this 'yes' saves a lot of trouble...

 Now I can see the booting message, but I can't see the login prompt, it
 stops here:

The serial console isn't turned on in /etc/ttys.
