When 'boot' is called it loads acpi.ko using tftp. After this I see a few packets like this: 11/23-18:45:17.738608 0:C:6E:D:91:BB -> 0:40:63:D4:89:72 type:0x800 len:0x13A 192.168.0.32:50231 -> 192.168.0.128:2295 UDP TTL:64 TOS:0x0 ID:7855 IpLen:20 Dgm Len:300 Len: 272 ...._desc.bus_generic_resume.swi_sched.__stop_set_modmetadata_se t.pci_get_resource_list.swi_add.bus_driver_added_desc.bus_child_ location_str_desc.pci_disable_busmaster_method.msleep.pcib_route _interrupt.device_disable.pci_print_child.intr_suspend.tc_init.i ntr_resume.free.^@ =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ and then the pxe client reboots. The same thing happens if I disable acpi using "set hint.acpi.0.disabled=1" in the loader.rc. vfs.root.mountfrom is not documented anywhere, should be rootdev? or something else? I can't see if the root filesystem is succesfully mounted or what is going on. Any hints would be greatly appreciated! I think I may have forgotten the obligatory: Hardware: VIA EPIA CL1000 (vr net interface) PXEbooting: FreeBSD 5.3 Thanks, Erik -- Ph: +34.666334818 web: www.locolomo.org S/MIME Certificate: http://www.locolomo.org/crt/2004071206.crt Subject ID: A9:76:7A:ED:06:95:2B:8D:48:97:CE:F2:3F:42:C8:F2:22:DE:4C:B9 Fingerprint: 4A:E8:63:38:46:F6:9A:5D:B4:DC:29:41:3F:62:D3:0A:73:25:67:C2
