The motherboard (BIOS rev.0203) is based on the nVidia MCP55 chipset, AMD64 3500+ (2200 MHz), 1 GB DDR553, two SATA2 Maxtor 80GB, DVD-R Samsung. Trying to boot the latest snapshot 6.1-STABLE-200608-amd64, the kernel probes most peripherals (the Marvel gigabit-ethernet is not detected, but that's a known item), but just after reporting acd0 it hangs solid with the IDE led on. No panic, nor errors. It seems related to the detection of the disks (they are not reported). I even left it in that state the whole night (just in case it was some loooong timeout), but nothing. The -i386 image exhibits the same exact behaviour. Booting without ACPI does not solve. 7.0-CURRENT-200608-amd64 boots fine (no Marvel gbit, of course). What should I try next? Angelo.

amd64/101873: Freebsd amd64 hangs on booting sata drive?

The 7.0-CURRENT-200608 passed the disk probes, and indeed finished the install, but was subject to a massive interrupt storm. As of today (2006-sep-16) the problem is solved in both 7-CURRENT and 6-STABLE (soon to be 6.2-RELEASE), I verified personally with 2 home-built snapshot CDROMs. I think this PR can be closed (FIXED). http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=101873 Angelo Turetta
