With: *default release=cvs tag=. *default date=2008.03.07.00.00.00 the machine gets over the pxeboot and loads kernel, then panics with this: http://people.fsn.hu/~bra/freebsd/20090107-freebsd-x4540/Screenshot-70.png With: *default date=2008.04.12.00.00.00 it freezes in this stage: http://people.fsn.hu/~bra/freebsd/20090107-freebsd-x4540/Screenshot-6.png 03.11 gave a stackdump loop (BTX halted, register states scrolling endlessly), earlier ones can boot but crash with "kernel trap 12 with interrupts disabled" (see above). Any chance for somebody to look into this issue?
