Dear group, I got a problem with a new AMD Opteron box, when I bot FreeBSD 6.1 (amd64) I get this: fBSD/i386 bootstrap revision 1.1 kernel text=.... data=.... sym=.... at-xy not found [regdump] BTX halted I've put a (very bad) screenshot online here: http://www.hta-bi.bfh.ch/~gea2/freebsdamd.jpg It's a Tyan S3950 Mainboard which is on the list of devices that work at least for some people: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=104661 Specs of the machine: * CPU: AMD Dual Core A64 X2 4200+ / 2x2200MHz / 2x512KB Cache * Motherboard: TYAN 3950 AM2 with VGA / 2x Gbit Intel LAN (4 DIMM) I use a 3ware SATA RAID controller, the onboard one does not have to work and is on PATA compatibility mode already for the CDROM. I've booted this CD image: 6.1-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly.iso I couldn't find anything useful with google or in the release notes/errata. Interestingly I can't find *anything* useful for the "at-xy not found" error message (which is really happening like this). The vendor ships a SUSE Linux with this box which works fine, also Fedora 6 amd64 boots just fine on it. I'm a bit lost now, especially because I cannot even disable anything in the kernel like this. So any hints would be appreciated. cu Adrian
