I have a bit different problem: The box (old Pentium-MMX PC with the FIC
PA-2005 board using VT82C580 (Apollo VP) chipset. The machine had 16MB
RAM only, recently upgraded to 256MB.
I have installed the newest BIOS version available, so the CD-ROM
booting works properly. I can boot Solaris 8 for Intel CD and NetBSD 4.0
install CD, but FreeBSD CDROMs from 5.5-RELEASE, 7.0-RELEASE and March
2007 8.0-CURRENT bootloaders fail in the same way:
- A /boot/loader menu appears. The cursor runs like around "10 seconds"
countdown, like "10" was printed and then 3 backspaces and 10 printed
again, no countdown takes place.
- Pressing some keys like Enter, Space and "3" - nothing happens, but if
you persist long enough (with "3" or "Enter") you can make the counter
running down.
- After the counter expires, the |/-\|/- progress meter (how do we call
this thing?) appears for a while and then the system resets.
How can I try to debug this? I have tried to attach serial console
with AT keyboard unplugged I still get message that VGA console will
be used. The serial port is working correctly (verified with Windows and
later with NetBSD).
Can I get serial console while booting from CDROM - do I need to remove
VGA card for this?
Soon I should receive a firewire controller, but I am not sure if any
low-level debugging can be done with this.
Below please find dmesg output from NetBSD (upgraded to -CURRENT).
