I have a problem booting my old 486 with the GENERIC (3.4) kernel since I installed a NE2000 compatible PCI network card. If I boot with a kernel compiled without support for NE2000, no problems appear, but with support for it (device ed0) the screen stops updating after the last line from the kernel: "Mounting root from wd0s1" (<-can't remember excactly, but something like that). I know that the computer finishes booting as normal, I can log in, and do a "make world" and the hard disk begins to work, but the screen doesn't show anything! When I then do a "Ctrl-Alt-Del" the screen shows up, as nothing had happened, full with build information from "make world", and then it reboots.. I've also tried a 3.5 kernel, but it doesn't help. Any ideas? greetings /sverre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
