( This is an exact copy of my post to -questions)
Hi all,
I am trying to install 5.4 on a box that's been running Linux. It's a 2
year old 'Snap Appliance 4500' (
http://www.snapappliance.com/page.cfm?name=4500Main&nav=4500 ), with 4 x
120 GB EIDE, P4, 512 Mb.
As soon as I try to load the kernel I get :
--- (copied by hand )
Fatal trap 10: trace trap while in vm86 mode
instruction pointer = 0xf000:0xf842
stack pointer = 0x0:0xff8
frame pointer = 0x0:0x0
code segment = base 0x330026, limit 0x1, type 0x9
= DPL 3, pres 1 def32 0, fram 0
processor eflags = interrupt enabled, vm86, IOPL=0
current process = 0 ()
trap number = 10
panic : trace trap
uptime : 1 s
-------------
Every time, the same pointers / segments. This happens right after the
kernel memory addresses (data? segment? pls excuse my ignorance) show
after pressing an option in the boot menu.
I've been trying to install from a USB external CD ROM, with 5.4 release
cd, iso, root@harlow.cse.buffalo.edu, Sun May 8 05:59:07 UTC 2005 (date
showing from bootloader).
- The same happens if I chose safe mode
- The same happens if I disable dma from the boot loader prompt
- I took one of the HDs out, installed in another pc, installed again as
drive #1, same problem and panic.
- I tried with only that one harddrive with FBSD 5.4 installed (all
other HDs removed) - same panic
- I tried with no HDs, just to see if the cd would boot - same panic.
- I tried with 4.9 release CD, ISO from Monday oct 27 , 2003, same
problem, slightly different addresses in panic (as expected, though
quite similar):

- booting with Linux Gentoo 5.0 universal cd works fine
- booting with knoppix 3.8 works just fine. With this, I got some
hardware info:
