Subject:   ed0 probe causes page fault in 2.0.5R
Message-ID:  <v01520d07ac0796ab9f26@[192.245.33.12]>

I'm trying to install 2.0.5R onto a Gateway 2000 machine.  It has a
Micronics motherboard, and is a 486DX2/66 with 32 Mb of RAM.  It ran
1.1.5.1 just fine.  I've installed 2.0.5R once already from the same disks
w/o any problem.  The only hardware in the system is the SMC Ethernet
device and a Mach32 (VLB) graphics adapter.

When booting from the updated boot floppy (the one with the 4MB RAM fix), I
tell the kernel to boot with the '-c' option.  I then set the port, irq,
and iomem of ed0 to 0x300, 10, and 0xcc000, which is the same as my jumpers
are configured for.  When I initiate a 'probe ed0', I always get:

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mod
fault virtual address    = 0xefc00330
fault code               = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer      = 0x8:0xf019d467
code segment             = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
                         = DPL 0, pres 1, def32, gran 1
processor eflags         = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process          = 0 ()
interrupt mask           = net tty bio


It will get as far as the installation menus when I disable all the
non-relevant devices (I always disable the devices that I don't have
installed).  I've read the FAQ, and I've been installing FreeBSD since the
1.0 days.  I can't figure this one out.

Help?  What is the deal here?
