I have what appears to be the same problem. I'm a longtime FreeBSD user. I put 4.8 on a new laptop (Tecra M1) and when I created a kernel with support for power management and the sound card, it would hang on the boot in a similar fashion. The generic kernel would boot fine. I found that if I remove the sound support from the kernel (but do have apm support) then it boots fine. I haven't had time to experiment further (other versions, more refined variations in the kernel config, ...). So, for now, I live without sound 8^( but I'd like to get it fixed. (So, Sanjay, if you're using the GENERIC kernel, this doesn't help much). One more possibly related observation. I've found that if I boot XP and then return to FBSD then the first time my modified kernel won't boot but the generic one will! After booting the generic kernel then I can boot mine. I'm at a loss on this unless perhaps Toshiba has XP mess with devices in some inappropriate way. Again I haven't investigate further. dayton > Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2003 21:21:05 -0700 > From: "Bakshi, Sanjay" <sanjay.bakshi@intel.com> > Subject: Hang while hardware probing in 4.8 > To: <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org> > Message-ID: > <B5677069E3D9994D9EE1C7295072EA96015F30C2@orsmsx402.jf.intel.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Hi, > I am installing FreeBSD 4.8 on a P4 and while hardware probing it hangs. > > How do I find on which device it is hung on? > > The print out stop after displaying > ppi0: <generic parallel i/0> on ppbus 0 > And I am quite certain that probing gets stuck on whatever the next > device being probed is.
