I thought everything was going great until I rebooted a few times and found it locking up during the hardware probing on the rp driver. FreeBSD finds the card and shows the correct hardware information but freezes right after it prints the information. This happens perhaps in 1 out of 5 bootups. I've tried moving the PCI card around, forcing specific IRQs, things of that nature but all have proven to be unsuccessful. I have also tried the driver back-ported from -CURRENT from http://people.freebsd.org/~gallatin/rp.tgz but it just froze the machine when kldloading. The machine is a Intel 810EAL mobo with a 3ware 6200 RAID card, onboard Intel NIC and extra PCI NIC (DEC/Intel 21143). Has anyone else seen something similar to this? I find it very odd that it only happens during some bootups, that worries me. Any insight is much appreciated, thanks! - Robert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
