I am trying to install FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE on the following hardware:
MB: Hsing Tech (PCChips) 486 VIP v3.2
BIOS: AMI 11/8/1995
CPU: TI486DX4-100
Video: Cirrus Logic 5434 based
Net: Realtek 8139 based
HD: 600M IDE
RAM: 32M
I get to the point where it says to press ENTER to boot the kernel. Once
the kernel starts to load, I get the following:
Booting [kernel]...
Fatal trap 1: privileged instruction fault while in kernel mode
instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc02d6afc
stack pointer = 0x10:0xc0671ebc
frame pointer = 0x10:0xc0671ec4
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 = Idle
trap number = 1
panic: privileged instruction fault
Uptime: 0s
I have downloaded the kernel.flp and mfsroot.flp disks twice and have written
them to two different sets of error free disks. I have also tried the 4.1.1
install floppies with the same results. I have swapped the RAM, CPU,
motherboard and HD with identical equipment. I have tried switching the video
to an STB Velocity 128 card and booting without the network interface. In each
case I get the same behavior.
As another test, I was able to successfully install RedHat 6.2 on the hardware.
Any ideas on how I can get FreeBSD on this box?
Thanks,
