I have a very basic 486 box running FreeBSD 2.2.7. By "basic"
I mean just a single IDE drive, floppy drive, ATAPI CD-ROM,
controller card and video card. Until yesterday, it was running
just fine. All of the sudden, it hangs in the boot process at
the following point:
FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE#0: Wed Jul 22 08:48:29 GMT 1998
root@builder.cdrom.com/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC
When I try to boot from the boot floppy, it hangs at exactly the
same point (the message is slightly different in that a different
date is referenced and the kernel referenced is BOOTMFS). I can
boot other machines from the same boot floppy just fine. The
machine will boot MSDOS just fine.
I'm at a loss. Can anyone shed any light on what might be going
on here?
Thanks for any input.
