I appologise if this is the wrong mailing to be using, but I have been finding it really hard to find any information relevant to my hardware. The original problem was about booting from the 4.5 alpha cd (namely the keyboard stops working when the terminal type menu comes up). Searches on google and reading the hardware.txt file were of no help. Finally I found the archieves for this list and know now its because of my graphics card not being supported. IMHO it would be *really* useful to mention this in the hardware file. Although I have learnt a fair bit about my system in the past 6 hours whilst trying to figure it out, other people might just give up. I haven't replaced the graphics card yet, but I did set SRM's console env to serial, and am booting over a serial cable. My problem now is that when I select standard install from sysinstall, I get: lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq Message qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk xNo disks found! Please verify that your disk controller is being x xproperly probed at boot time. See the Hardware Guide on the x xDocumentation menu for clues on diagnosing this type of problem. x tqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq(100%)qqu x [ OK ] x mqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq[ Press enter or space ]qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqj My machine is supported, according to the Hardware.txt file. During the boot up, my harddisk does show up (as da0). As far as I know, the hardware is as it was when purchased originally. I got the machine earlier today from my university who have been using it as an SMTP server for donkeys years. I don't know what its previous OS was, they stuck Redhat Linux on it before getting rid of it (which appears to work fine). I upgraded the firmware to the latest version earlier whilst trying to figure out my first problem, its now V7.0-9 (Mar 18 1999 13:41:11). During the start of sysinstall when it does the probing I did notice something which could be of a problem. I don't know however what to do about it. I enclose with this email a full output of the bootup with -v option. After that is pasted a small selection of sysinstalls probing session. If someone can help me, I'd be most appreciative. I've installed Fbsd numerous times on i386 machines without problems. After 7 years of i386 *nix ownership, now that I've got my first real unix box I'm determined not to desecrate it by installing linux! :-) Thanks Steven ff.fe.fd.fc.fb.fa.f9.f8.f7.f6.f5. ef.df.ee.ed.ec.f4.eb.ea.e9.e8.e7.e6.....e5.
