Hello, After a very long time of trying different things, it is where the serial console does work. It seems that none of the serial-to-usb devices were fast enough to transfer data from the X5000's serial port. Still, I have some issues. The kernel can't seem to find the userland. It stops with DHCP/BOOTP. It looks like it is trying to do a netboot. I have an install of FreeBSD on a thumb drive. My guess is that I need to move the boot loader to the FAT partition. Is this correct? Also, I just did an install to the thumb drive from an X86 FreeBSD machine that I borrowed to compile the powerpc install. Would it be better to have the cdrom installer on the thumb drive? Kind Regards, Alhome | help
