I attempted moving the media I use with the 2-socket/2-cores-each G5 into the 2-socket/1-cores-each G5 that I have access to. It silently hangs up almost immediately after the loader's timeout prompt is "returned to" (or finishes the timeout). This happened for both vt and sc for kern.vty . An older system that still boots (with an oddity) with is as follows, also showing some about the type of machine: FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT #18 r365932M: Tue Sep 22 13:46:46 PDT 2020 = root@FBSDFHUGE:/usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_clang/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/powe= rpc.powerpc64/sys/GENERIC64vtsc-NODBG powerpc FreeBSD clang version 11.0.0 (git@github.com:llvm/llvm-project.git = llvmorg-11.0.0-rc2-91-g6e042866c30) VT(ofwfb): resolution 1680x1050 cpu0: IBM PowerPC 970 revision 2.2, 2000.20 MHz cpu0: Features dc000000<PPC32,PPC64,ALTIVEC,FPU,MMU> cpu0: HID0 511081<NAP,DPM,NHR,TBEN,ENATTN> model: 50 6f 77 65 72 4d 61 63 37 2c 32 00=20 'PowerMac7,2' cpu-version: 00 39 02 02=20 model: 41 70 70 6c 65 20 50 6f 77 65 72 4d 61 63 37 2c 32 20 35 2e=20 31 2e 34 66 30 20 42 6f 6f 74 52 4f 4d 20 62 75 69 6c 74 20=20 6f 6e 20 31 31 2f 32 31 2f 30 33 20 61 74 20 31 37 3a 34 31=20 3a 34 38 00=20 'Apple PowerMac7,2 5.1.4f0 BootROM built on 11/21/03 at 17:41' ':48' BootROM-version: 24 30 30 30 35 2e 31 34 66 30 00=20 '$0005.14f0' BootROM-build-date: 31 31 2f 32 31 2f 30 33 20 61 74 20 31 37 3a 34 31 3a 34 38=20 00=20 '11/21/03 at 17:41:48' # uname -apKU FreeBSD FBSDG5L2 13.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT #18 r365932M: Tue Sep = 22 13:46:46 PDT 2020 = root@FBSDFHUGE:/usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_clang/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/powe= rpc.powerpc64/sys/GENERIC64vtsc-NODBG powerpc powerpc64 1300115 1300115 The above has my normal patches involved and is a non-debug build.

(Despite what is shown, I did type "ufs:/dev/ufs/FBSDG5LBrootfs".) The early-fail media is based on main's 19cca0b9613d (but with my = patches involved): # ~/fbsd-based-on-what-freebsd-main.sh mm-src 19cca0b9613d7c3058e41baf0204245119732235 CommitDate: 2021-01-09 16:21:33 -0800 5d333ee67ac3 19cca0b9613d (HEAD -> mm-src) mm-src snapshot for mm's = patched build in git context. FreeBSD FBSDG5L2 13.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT = mm-src-c255807-g5d333ee67ac3 GENERIC64vtsc-NODBG powerpc powerpc64 = 1300134 1300134 This media boots the 2-socket/2-cores-each G5 just fine. I tried the artifacts.ci.freebsd.org r368820 powerpc64 debug=20 kernel with the r365932 world and it does not have the same early-fail problem, but it hangs later, after (last message): cryptosoft0: <software crypto> on nexus0 Unfortunately, git's main still has no artifact materials after r368820 so there are no official/ready-made materials to approximately bisect with in order to identify when the early-fail started. r368820 did not have distinctions based on vt vs. sc. So it looks like I was just out of date for the status of that on the PowerMac7,2 system, not having tested it in so long: it got far beyond where it used to stop. =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
