Hello, I'm really depressed and hope someone can help me here. Hardware: IBM xSeries 345 Server, 2 x Xeon 2.8 GHz 533, 2 x 512MB IBM ECC RAM, ICP Vortex GDT8514RZ RAID, 5 x IBM 36GB HDD U320. The server comes with an IBM serveRaid 5-i controller but I replaced it with the ICP controller, because of the known FreeBSD ips driver bug. I have installed FBSD 4.8 and everything looks fine. But it does not matter what I am doing after the installation, the server freezes after approximately 15 mins. The same happens with a new compiled kernel too. dmesg shows no problems. After that I tried to install fbsd 5.0, 5.1, current and I realized the same behavior - well, with a slight difference: the keyboard freezes at boot process: "atkbd unable to set the command byte". I musst disable ACPI to continue... Remarks - after the server freezes: - no warnings on screen - the server ist still pingable - the ssh client does not disconnect - I can still type but without reaction - system temperature is o.k. - I tried 2 different rams - I tried a different raid controller with external hdds linux runs without problems... Thanks. -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ Jetzt ein- oder umsteigen und USB-Speicheruhr als Prämie sichern!
