=20BTW we have also successfully booted the=20 'offending box' with FC4 and it all came up ok. This should rule out hardware issues I hope. Is there a way to force a (re)scan of the other PCI busses ?? Or is there a hint.??? line I can add? mjt -----Original Message----- From: Murray Taylor=20 Sent: Thursday, 19 April 2007 11:26 AM To: FreeBSD Mailing List; freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org; general@vicfug.au.freebsd.org Subject: IBM / FreeBSD Install problem - more OK -- at present I cannot get a 6.2 install disk to get anywhere further. Trying FreeSBIE 2.0.1 (aka 6.2) I can get a boot with=20 set hint.acpi.0.disabled=3D1 set acpi_load=3DNO boot -v However it doesnt find the bge card nor has it found an fxp card we have tried, so I cant get to dmesg output=20 off the machine.... What i have seen is that the ServeRAID 8i controller=20 say it is on PCI bus 1:2:0 Nowhere in the boot log is pcib1 or any mention of the physical pci bus 1 Just to test I booted an IBM pizza box x305 with the FreeSBIE disk in the same fashion, and up comes its bge i/f, the boot -v logs=20 show=20 pcib0 , pcib1 , pcib2 along with their associated physical busses.
