I installed -stable (from the snapshot Wilko pointed me at), onto a disk configured as JBOD (the system itself) and a RAID 5 virtual disk (/home). The install went fine, but after the install, i type "boot dra0" at the srm prompt and got (hand transcribed): Block 0 of dra0.0.0.4.0 is a valid boot block Reading 15 blocks from dra0.0.0.4.0 Bootstrap code read in Building FRU table Base = 200000. image_start = 0, image_bytes = 1e00 Initliazing HWRPB at 2000 Initializing page table at 1f2000 Initliazing machine state Setting affinity to the primary CPU Jumping to bootstrap code Boot: It just sits here, and whatever I type in I get: Loading Can't open file Halting CPU 0 Halt code = 5 Halt instruction executed PC = 20000038 I installed the 2001-07-21 -current snapshot from ftp.freebsd.org/snapshots/alpha by booting the -stable install cd, then pointing it at the -current bits on a local NFS server. After the install was done I typed "boot dra0" at the srm prompt again, and it booted just fine. If there is anything else you want me to try just let me know. If you want me to try -stable again just let me know, I have another RAID 5 virtual disk that I have not used yet. thanks -Adam To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
