To: bugs@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 19 May 1997 16:33:39 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I've been a FreeBSD user since mid 95 and obtained the 2.2.2-REL boot to upgrade from 2.2.1-REL. This .flp image seems to malfunction with my hardware. Hardware: 486/66 DX/2 EISA, 48 mb ram, Adaptec 1740 controller, IDE/Floppy/ SIO controller, 1 gb IDE HD, 1.6 GB SCSI HD (the IDE is my primary disk), SMC Elite Ultra NIC, ATI Mach32 EISA video card I boot from the floppy w/ -c, set up the configuration approrpriate for my hardware, the kernel boots after the configuration is saved, and ... (lots of disabled hardware reported...) zp0: disabled, not probed. npx0: flags 0x1 on motherboard npx0: INT 16 interface apm0: disabled, not probed. changing root device to fd0c panic: double fault syncing disks... (system frozen). I tried using two boot disks generated by two different .flp images from two different machines - I confirmed that the floppy controller was not disabled in the visual config menu. I'm stumped. Thanks, Rich
