I have a low end DELL Lattitude that has been successfully
running 5.4-RELEASE. I have tried loading 6.0-BETA3 three
times and it panics every time early while loading the Minimal
system. Does anyone else see this? (I haven't ruled out a disk problem)
Hand transcribed from the screen:
panic: vm_fault: fault on nofault entry:
c7229000 cpuid = 0
[thread pid 26 100026]
Stopped at kbd_enter_0x2b: nop
For the install process, I pick
"Standard", Give the whole disk to slice1 for FreeBSD
and take the "Auto" partitions.
I ask for a "Minimal" install.
(side note: the new default partitions sizes seem strange:)
1a / 512MB
1b swap 230MB
1d /var 1139MB
1e /tmp 512MB
1f /usr 708MB
I retried loading 5.4 Release, and it successfully installs.
Here is the dmesg from a working 5.4-RELEASE
