Yesterday I added an extra DIMM to my machine and since then I've been unable to boot to the second drive. I actually have 2 IBM Deskstar 40GB drives installed with -stable and 4.6-RELEASE on the second and I use the FreeBSD boot manager to control these things. Disk one boots okay but disk two goes through the bootloader before dying with these messages: Disk Error 0x10 (lba0x4f) Disk Error 0x10 (lba0x4f) No /boot/loader >>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default: 1:ad(1,a)/kernel boot: Disk Error 0x10 (lba0x4f) no /kernel >>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default: 1:ad(1,a)/kernel boot: Then it awaits my instructions. I've booted from a fixit CD and reinstalled the MBR but it didn't help (the loader worked before hand anyway). If I try and mount the slice it dies with an "Input/output error" I grounded myself before opening the machine and also gave the heatsink etc. a little dust. I've looked again and made sure the cables are still firmly attached too. Anyone want to tell me just what I've done?
