Kernel boot is OK Device selection is OK Devices detection hangs after serial (sioX) and parallel (ppcX) ports detection. The last line printed is: plip0 .... It seems that some kind of conflict happens between ppc0 and ATA/SCSI drives detection. The same hardware works without any trouble during a FreeBSD 4.3 installation. >How-To-Repeat: Restart the machine ... >Fix: Do not know the fix, but the workaround is: ! Enable the USB interrupt in the P2B Motherboard BIOS config ! No jumper exist on the MB to disable the USB ports, but those who do not need USB usualy disable the IRQ to keep one more IRQ free. DON'T DO THAT ! This is probably due to some changes in the usb code between 4.3 and 4.4 ? >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
