Speaking of boot problems, when I reboot my AlphaServer 2000 (running FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE), the firmware loops, repeating the following messages: halted CPU 0 halt code =3D 2 kernel stack not valid halt PC =3D 0 CPU 0 restarting I cannot break into the console (neither via control-C, nor via a serial line hard break). I must hit the reset switch in order to continue. This can be most inconvenient as I do not always have physical access to this server. Is this a problem with FreeBSD or with the firmware? I realize I need to upgrade 5.3-RELEASE-p5 at there are at least two security-related bugs in 5.3-RELEASE. A cursory Google search resulted only in a number of posts about trying to install NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, or Linux onto unsupported hardware. This error only happens after I halt the operating system.
