One of the hard disks of the server died, not long after I upgraded to 9. They replaced the disk and the system runs fine again. It should be noted that the ahci(4) driver made the system hang on timeouts, whereas the ata(4) driver already observed timeouts during startup and disabled the channel entirely. This allowed me to properly boot with a single disk. --=20 Ed Schouten WWW: http://80386.nl/ --IJpNTDwzlM2Ie8A6 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (FreeBSD) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJOPQj4AAoJEG5e2P40kaK7t0UP+wc4MBQGoNYTLjqnvd40KpPM KCNHRn7h/FSUGHTqjuZVX4rpxetXPnJ208NQKQ1MUMFtOfqdfrgVynMIdVLUZkfI jjRzYwBroelSApLEriqbzT1HPGoyLkDLAjHweFz5hghcDzCOOEYA78evlI1+WL+U 50XsQY1U7r/eELs2tVYII9pgoXnLwhDW/9np4BFbH9kwlAc7fTkun9rof7AVTs0I VTi6vc9VPlTNLqgQMq3X6NuZWhmt+iVBW15GT/mcQiPpm0HP/+UKRPZGfUx58RXf COoZbAVyLXm/VJxgCHl0FwSLipGRQaZS/Jab07Nplog0CvojXVTSp1Yjb44i/y09 +qAckwWsTcXU98jJ+9rgV4V20LDi48mVhQg62BoJas8hH9VJDqa3kdw6Ac7iR2L3 xKKLNP7BRSBRlxoosrBvyM9+VaniFp9z61RRCivNzSaM02B/TQ40ZoFuRhK4YCJs MTV1DC3ks6YFR3J69xyBGVU9Qzu7aKswSRKe36r5C3DdeP1ekAnP9zTVHZmUbSzR g6ajhIfPTzpEHceHRaUQT9CQOrcmDUGDzvXTlgy64sSgy6oy9wedli8iCRDr05mR lGD2q8IFCSqpRZP52oVStv+9XT3Zqr5imWWwlk15PULuntYChKcgS/31QUahReuI n7WfZuOeERozBlCwoyI0 =fB3A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --IJpNTDwzlM2Ie8A6--
