X-BeenThere: freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussions about the use of FreeBSD-current List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 17 Jun 2004 21:33:40 -0000 Last system upgrade from CVSup was done on June 11th, so I'm running a new system. That aside ... I've been running an AX4B-533 motherboard for the longest time, but, in order to make use of an SATA drive I just bought, I figured I'd upgrade the motherboard instead of buying an interface card ... got the motherboard, transfer'd all my old components to the new one ... and boot hangs. First note ... I didn't have the SATA drive in yet, was still using the old IDE drives ... I can get to the BIOS, it recognizes my drives ... it gets to the boot blocks, where I can hit F1 to go to FreeBSD ... then it just sits there indefinitely ... I know that hitting F1 has done something, since the screen scrolls up a couple of lines, same as when it boots normally, but instead of getting that 'twirling -' that I would expect, nothing ... Has anyone had experience with the AX4SPE-UN board? Is there something semi-obvious I should be trying? Thanks ... ---- Marc G.
