Hey folks!

(Is there a mailing list for discussing FreeBSD jumpstart/network
installations?)

Here's the situation.  We built a "install FreeBSD system over the network"
system using the standard DHCP -> PXEBOOT -> loader -> mount network root
-> sysinstall reads install.cfg method.  It works great in FreeBSD 4.1 and
4.3.  Now we're upgrading to FreeBSD 4.5 and we can't duplicate what we
have.

The process works until sysinstall starts.  It complains:
	Loading module if_an.ko failed
	(I press [OK])
	Loading module if_txp.ko failed
	(I press [OK])
	Loading module if_wi.ko failed
	(I press [OK])
	FOund PC-card slots(s).
	(I press [No])
Then if I'm using DHCP, it panics.
If I'm not using DHCP ("tryDHCP=no" in install.cfg), it gives me the screen
to verify the IP address that I've set, and then panics:

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address    = 0x8
fault code               = supervisor read, page not present
...
processor eflags         = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process          = 15 (ifconfig)
interrupt mask           = net tty
trap number              = 12
panic: page fault


The beginning of the install.cfg file is:

# Turn on extra debugging.
debug=YES

nonInteractive=YES
noWarn=YES
#tryDHCP=YES
tryDHCP=no
########################

netDev=xl0
netInteractive=YES
ipaddr=65.198.68.223
netmask=255.255.255.192
mediaSetNFS

Any pointers to how to debug this?

Thanks in advance,
