Hello, I thought I would upgrade my system to the latest -current (as of a few days ago) so I could try the LinuxThreads stuff out. I was running a -current of around November last year. I had no problems upgrading my ELF userland and the bootblocks (my old aout kernel boots fine), but when I try and boot my sparkling new ELF kernel it gets up to right before the aout kernel tells me what device it is going to swap onto (ie. it has done the CAM SCSI probes and reported back on my SCSI disk and CDROM) and just hangs. I have 2 primary IDE discs across 2 controllers, and an IDE CDROM as a slave on the primary controller and the SCSI disk and CDROM. My root is on the primary master IDE drive so I assume I don't need to set num_ide_disks (I did try that interactively to no effect). Could someone let me know how to get more diagnostics in there so I can pinpoint the problem? Or the solution :-) -- Cheers, david davidh@progmatics.com.au Progmatics Pty Ltd - Architects of IT and Internet Solutions Level 8, 191 Clarence Street Phone +61 2 9262 4933 Sydney NSW Australia Fax +61 2 9262 4045 http://www.progmatics.com.au/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
