I tried again on an IBM Netfinity server with SCSI drives today and here is the last screen of boot messages from the CDROM burned from the 6.2 ISO image: sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled vga0: at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0 Timecounter "TSC" frequency 996849208 Hz quality 800 Timecounters tick every 1.000 msec md0: Preloaded image 4423680 bytes at 0xc0af6544 acd0: CDROM at ata0-master PIO4 Waiting 5 seconds for SCSI devices to settle ses0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 8 lun 0 ses0: Fixed Processor SCSI-2 device ses0: 3.300MB/s transfers ses0: SAF-TE Compliant Device da0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device da0: 160.000MB/s transfers (80.000MHz, offset 63, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enable d da0: 8678MB (17774160 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 1106C) da1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 da1: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device da1: 160.000MB/s transfers (80.000MHz, offset 127, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabl ed da1: 34715MB (71096640 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 4425C) Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0 ________________________________________________________________________________ This is always the last message before a hard lockup at which time the party is over. If we reboot and do not do the headless install, the installation works properly. Martin McCormick WB5AGZ Stillwater, OK Systems Engineer OSU Information Technology Department Network Operations Group
