It was recently running Linux just fine, but I am having a tough time getting FreeBSD installed on it. Here is the error I get when booting. I have typed all that is visible on the screen when it crashes. # Begin isa0: on isab0 atapci0: port 0x3000-0x300f,0x376,0x170-0x177,0x 3f6,0x1f0-0x1f7 at device 1.1 on pci0 ata0: channel #0 on atapci0 ata1: channel #1 on atapci0 uhci0: at device 1.2 on pci0 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xeb97b fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc00eb87c stack pointer = 0x10:0xc10209f0 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc10209f0 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 (swapper) trap number = 12 panic: page fault # End So, my question is: Is this the UHCI driver failing to load (happens at this same point every time I try to boot it)? Is there any way around this? Possible using a trimmed down kernel to boot? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Jason
