Hi everybody. Got a problem with my desktop running FreeBSD 5.1, hanging on boot. Connected to Internet via adsl and a FreeBSD 4.8 NAT Gateway-box. > uname -a FreeBSD thor.swedehost.com 5.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE #0: Sat Jul 26 16:35:38 CEST 2003 hasse@thor.swedehost.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/THOR i386 Stopping at Entropy harvesting. I have to press "CTRL+C" to continue booting. Then everything works as it's supposed to. ( I think ? ) Frankly, I don't have a clue on what I'm doing, but I've disabled ACPI in my /boot/device.hints file to get my floppy drive to work, and I've commented out all SCSI devices exept device scbus, and all Raid in my kernel, because I don't have any. <Snip from bootmessage> Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s3a Loading configuration files Entropy harvesting: interrupts ethernet point_to_point </Snip> I've tried to find some info about it at : http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.0R/relnotes-i386.html http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.1R/errata.html but I don't seem to get it, (or understand it .-) Any tips, detailed instructions or solutions would be most appriciated. Best Regards Geir Svalland.
