I have a Gateway P5-90 Pentium computer with the following
configuration:
- Pentium Processor 90 MHz (without fdiv bug).
- motherboard Intel Neptun (Zappa)
128 M memory (EDO memory: 4x32M)
floppy disks: 3.5" / 5 "
first IDE interface: hard disks: WD: 6400 G + 3200 G
second IDE interface: CD-Rom (40x) + Iomega Zip (100M)
ISA SCSI controller (AVA1505: IRQ=11 I/O=0x340 DMA=0) with:
- SCSI CD Writer Yamaha CDR8424S
- SCSI Harddisk (Seagate Barracuda) 4.2 G
ISA Network card: NE2000+ (IRQ=10 I/O=0x300)
ISA Creative Sound Blaster 16 Card
(usually: IRQ=5 I/O=0x220, 0x330, 0x388 DMA: 1,5)
ISA Modem Zoltrix (COM3)
- PCI have IRQ=9
PCI TsengLab (ET4000/W32p) video card (1M).
PCI Brooktree (BT848) video acquisition card
PCI Hauppauge TV/PCI(604) (BT878) TV card
I used once (in 1994) the 2.1 version of FreeBSD and I succedded
to install it. OK, I didn't use it too much, because at that time
I loaded the system from diskettes (I have had a CDROM IDE - the first
IDE version, a NEC270 one, but you didn't have support for the IDE
CDrom,
only proprietary one... -> copy the distribution from CD to
diskettes, and so on... ). It was when the linux kernel was 1.1.59....
NOW:.....
On the computer there are installed (and working) the following
operating systems: Windows95, Novell 5.0, NT4.0, Dos6.2
Linux (kernel: 2.0.29).
The main boot loader is LILO (menu for 4 systems, except
Novell -> the DOS starting partition for it is a logical one).
I tried to install FreeBSD 4.1 on the computer, using the boot and
root diskette (I don't have a bootable CDROM in BIOS, then I generated
the diskettes from the CD), but I didn't succeed. It is the first time
when it happen this to me. The messages when the kernel is booting are:
------------------------------------------------------------

atapici0: Busmastering DMA not supported.
panic: resource_list_alloc: resource entry is busy
uptime: 0s
------------------------------------------------------------
On other systems where I tried, it seems to boot until the instalation
menu........But because it seems that you do not have a possibility
to review the booting messages (like SHIFT-Pg.UP in Linux), I do not
know the exact boot messages and sequence on the other systems, bacause
when I quit the installation menu, the system want to reboot).
I tried the tricks with "flags npx0 1" (from trouble.txt), but it don't
work. In the configuration of kernel, I disabled all possible features
- in advanced mode - (except sc0 and keyboard), but the same things
happen.
If you need messages, I tried to give all possible messages:
Booting messages:

disk3s7: ext2fs 1204 MB(2145087-4612608)
OBS: also here are missing some partitions... why ???
The problemm is: what can I do ? How can I install the FreeBDS on the
computer ? I do not know the order for the kernel to load drivers and
probe them, then I could not figure out where the error is...(and in
principle it must not be any errors, because it is not the first time
when I install an operating system on it)....
If you have some ideeas how to work around this, please let me know...
