It doesn't seem to be looking at etc/ttys yet, but at least it is now producing a var/run/dmesg.boot ! I tried booting without the files from under /usr/src/etc/etc.sparc64 and the ttys file I already had as it was, with that ttys file containing an ofwcons line (a'la Drew), the files from etc.sparc64 without ofwcons in ttys, and once more with ofwcons in the new ttys file. I got the same result in each case. Drew, I also see the disk attached as BIOSPIO -- is this what you posted about in the current list (maybe)?

This was my fault: I messed up a commit in trap_subr.S, which prevented signal delivery in certain situations. This should now be fixed, so an update and buildkernel/installkernel will pick it up. The other thing I forgot to mention in the install step is that some additional files need to be copied to /etc. This is another case of files not being in the tree, but fortunately they're the same as used in sparc64 cp /etc/etc.sparc64/* /etc/ mv /etc/rc.sparc64 /etc/rc.powerpc This will give you a ttys file which is needed to be able to log in on the console. later, Peter. > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ppc" in the body of the message
