Oh boy... since you successfully completed an install, perhaps you can tell me which local problem causes this error (I'm now using floppies that seem good - fdformat doesn't see any problems, anyway). After it uses KERN2, and asks for BOOT again, I get this error: ata1-master: timeout sending command = a1 ata1-master: issueing ATAPI_IDENTIFY command ad0: WARNING - READ_DMA interrupt was seen but timeout fired LBA=1 ATAPI_RESET time = 60us acd0: CDROM at ata1-master P104 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0 spec_getpages: (md0) I/O read failure: (error = 5) bp 0xc2d8ad74 vp 0xc1711ab3 size: 1024, resid: 1024, a_count: 932, valid: 0x0 nread: 0, reqpage: 0, pindex: 500, pcount: 1 vm_fault: pager read error, pid 1 (swapper) init died (signal 6, exit 0) panic: going nowhere without my init! cpuid = 0; KDB: enter: panic [thread 100003] Stopped at kdb_enter +0x2b: nop (This was transcribed by hand, but the "issueing" typo isn't mine; it's in the code.)
