Hello. I've tried to install FreeBSD 8.0-beta3, but after installation system doesn't boot. System configuration: * Tyan 2932-E (NVIDIA NFP3600), * 1 x AMD Opteron 2352, * 4GB, * 2x WD VelociRaptor (WD1500HLFS) on internal SATA RAID (MCP55), * Qlogic 2560 - fibre HBA to Xyratex RS-1220-F4-5412E-2048-DL2 via SAN Switch Qlogic 5600 Install media - USB disk (I've tried two different disks, MD5 and SHA - right). I've tried different install configuration with the same result. There is no difference where to install - on internal array or on SAN disk. When I've use minimal distribution set, system installation completed successfully, but doesn't boot with error message: Episode 1: ------------------- If I've used internal array (device arX): 'No boot loader' or 'Invalid format' FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: No /boot/kernel/kernel Episode 2: ------------------- In case of SAN (device daX): [... kernel messages - all hardware detected, disk - clean...] ip6addrctl: not found .... logger: no found ... find: not found mktemp: not found [... and so on until message: ] init: can't exec getty 'usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv1: No such file or directory init: can't exec getty 'usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv5: No such file or directory init: can't exec getty 'usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv3: No such file or directory [... and so on ] I've tried to boot in single mode and run # fsck -y -f A HUGE amount of errors, but after repair system doesn't boot with the same errors Episode 3: ------------------- If i add some other packets to distribution set - install fail with error like this: panic: ufs_dirbad: /mnt/usr: bad dir ino 73504 at offset 0: mangled entry cpuid = 2 KDB: enter: panic [thread pid 109 tid 100088] Stopped at kdb_enter+0x3d: movq $0,0x68c5b0(%rip) db> Episode 4: ------------------- I've install FreeBSD 7.2 amd64. Everything fine, except it doesn't see SAN disk at all (isp driver doesn't know about Qlogic 2560) After it I've perform freebsd-update (like this: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2009-August/051628.html) Everything fine!! but the kernel has lot's of stuff i don't need, so i rebuild the kernel and the world: # csup -h .... /root/stable-8 (RELENG_8) # echo 'HISTORICAL_MAKE_WORLD=YES' > /etc/make.conf # echo 'CPUTYPE?=opteron' >> /etc/make.conf # cp /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GENERIC /root/G1 # vi G1 (remove only debuging options, and STOP_NMI, wlan and so on - accordingly UPDATING file, and add COMPAT_FREEBSD7) # cd /usr/src && make world clean && reboot and have the situation like in Episode 1. Note (I suppose the procedure is correct because of minor updates between BETA3 and current RELENG_8, and I don't need to do make builworld buildkernel installkernel and so on) I've tried almost all of this on 3 different servers (with the same config) with the same result. And all of this because of newer isp driver for QLogic %\ Can anyone explain me what I've done wrong? (Or maybe this message just help to make FreeBSD better :)) Thanks in advance. -------------------------- Ruslan. Office3k admin team.
