Hi, I've here a dual itanium2 supermicro machine (chipset E8870) and I can't install FreeBSD 5.3 because the booting get blocked after the first step (after the kernel and modules are loaded and I press ENTER). I've read that FreeBSD IA64 doesn't support VGA, then I've changed the BIOS settings to boot with serial port, but I only get garbage. Do you have experience with Supermicro IA64 + FreeBSD? What can I do? Thanks.
