I had same problem with this laptop about a week ago trying to install 4.3-RELEASE. Going via boot -c route and disabling pccard controllers plus everything not required to boot and install off the CD has helped. I installed sources and everything. After throwing away support for devices and stuff I didn't need and playing a bit with IRQs and memory mappings I got it to boot w/o hangs. However it seems that Xircom RealPath CardBus Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56 shipped with the laptop is not supported by the original pccard code. All I could get from pccardd both with -RELEASE and -STABLE was "No card in database for "(null)"("(null)")". This was after all the juggling with memory mapping and /etc/pccard.conf settings. So, I just stopped trying and installed a 20010629 -CURRENT snapshot from http://current.jp.freebsd.org/ (Thanks, guys!). After recompiling the kernel based on a NEWCARD kernel profile, Xircom card is being detected during the boot and works just fine at 100Mbit/full-duplex (device dc). Add device xl into the equation for a 3Com adapter built into the laptop dock station. Let me know if you need relevant pieces of laptop's -CURRENT kernel config. > > G'luck, > Peter > > -- > I am not the subject of this sentence. > > ----- Forwarded message from Robin Huiser <robin@bequbed.com> ----- > > From: "Robin Huiser" <robin@bequbed.com> > To: "Peter Pentchev" <roam@orbitel.bg> > Subject: RE: i386/28293: Dell Latitude CpxJ 750 hangs on install > Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 17:09:19 +0200 > X-Priority: 3 (Normal) > X-MSMail-Priority: Normal > In-Reply-To: <20010620161516.A794@ringworld.oblivion.bg> > Importance: Normal > X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4522.1200 > > Hi, > > I'm afriad it has the same results. > I tried this with the 4.2 version of FreeBSD, same result... > > Cheers -- Robin > -- lx To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
