Subject:   kernel panic if using SCSI CDROM as root device
Message-ID:  <20011115003027.A87962@physik.TU-Berlin.DE>

Hi!

I build an CDROM image with a boot image containing a GENERIC kernel
and an "ordinary" FreeBSD-4.4-STABLE installation.

After booting the kernel I get the "mountroot> " prompt. On systems
having an ATAPI-CDROM mounting the CD as a root filesystem works
(giving cd9660:/dev/acd0c as root), but not on SCSI systems (giving
cd9660:/dev/cd0c as root). On such systems a kernel panic occurs
("Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode").

Any ideas?

	Regards Dirk

P. S. Let me know if you need more information...
