Hi,
I found a RB433AH that is not doing anything and was wondering if one
can run FreeBSD on it. For a start I thought of just a NFS boot. I
started with the AR71XX_BASE config file and removed the USB and
other stuff that I think I do not need and can get it load the kernel
and start it. But it looks like there is a problem with the ethernet
because I get stuck at:
Timecounters tick every 1.000 msec
Sending DHCP Discover packet from interface arge0 (00:0c:42:90:f9:de)
arge0: link state changed to DOWN
arge0: link state changed to UP
DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255
DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255
...
This just keeps on repeating.
Maybe I need some specific setup for the ethernet / phy. Anybody with
ideas?
The boot looks like this:
