Good Evening STABLE :)
Ok, I'm sure I'm not the only one that has this box, so surely someone
has run FreeBSD on one. The box in question is an Intel ISP2150. 2x650MHz
P3, 512M of ram, and 4x9G IBM disks in raid 5 on a Adaptec 7896 controller.
It's running BIOS 12.3 which according to Intel's site is the latest
available for it.
Having that out of the way -- I have tried installing from 4.7, 4.8-RC
and the 5.0 iso's (and floppies) but all I can do is make BTX halt on
this box. It POSTs, the SCSI card POSTs, and then it kicks over to where it
should boot, hits the CD drive (or floppy when trying it that way) and I get
this:
-- Snip --
int=0000000d err=00000000 efl=00030006 eip=000006a6
eax=000d1095 ebx=02900216 ecx=00000004 edx=00000080
esi=0000323b edi=00003228 ebp=00000000 esp=000003fa
cs=cd80 ds=cd80 es=9c80 fs=9c80 gs=9c80 ss=9abe
cs:eip=26 0f 01 14 0f 20 c0 0c-01 0f 22 c0 eb 00 b8 10
ss:esp=0c 32 29 03 90 02 95 09-00 00 02 02 38 91 00 00
BTX halted
-- Snip --
Does anyone out there in 'netland have one of these boxes running
FreeBSD? Intel list the "Tested Operating Systems" as: Microsoft Windows
2000, Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Red Hat Linux 6.1 and Solaris 7, but I
really want BSD on it. It does indeed boot Win2K though, as that's what it
currently has installed.
If anyone has any suggestions for me I'm more than happy to try them
and thank you in advance. I googled for this and found one report of a
similar problem, but said problem didn't appear to ever be reported as
solved. If this is documented somewhere, please feel free to point me there :)
P.S. Please reply to the list only (instead of me directly) so that
procmail routes your reply correctly. My mail spool is voluminous as it is.
