i have strange things happening when trying to run a freebsd install from boot floppies on my vaio c1xd. the kern.flp will find a loader and load the kernel, then ask me for the mfsroot.flp which also gets read in without a problem (the floppy on the vaio is a y-e flashbuster usb device which has boot support in the system bios for real mode). then the kernel would start, but all that happens is, that the box locks up. it is not dependent on the pcmcia card inserted and i disabled the pnp os setting in bios. the lockup is hard, so i got to switch it off an on again, keyboard is not resonding as a matter of fact, too. the 4.2-RELEASE boot floppies work, btw. any ideas how i can track this one down or if this happens with other vaios as well? i will try to boot the install cd when i got my burner at work so i can create a boot cd later next week. /k -- > Parts that don't exist can't break. -- Russell Nelson KR433/KR11-RIPE -- http://www.webmonster.de -- ftp://ftp.webmonster.de [Key] [KeyID---] [Created-] [Fingerprint-------------------------------------] GnuPG 0x2964BF46 2001-03-15 42F9 9FFF 50D4 2F38 DBEE DF22 3340 4F4E 2964 BF46 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
