FreeBSD 9.1 Beta 1 fails to install in qemu-kvm on Gentoo Linux
Dear FreeBSD Developers, Trying to install FreeBSD 9.1 Beta 1 in qemu-kvm on Gentoo Linux fails before the kernel dmesg with 'kernel trap 9 with interrupts disabled'. I am running the following command: qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=/dev/zvol/rpool/KVM/freebsd,if=scsi-bootorder=c -cdrom/mnt/backup/isos/FreeBSD-9.1-BETA1-amd64-disc1.iso -m2048 -smp 6,cores=6,threads=1,sockets=1 -curses -net nic,model=e1000,macaddr=52:54:00:00:ee:04 -cpu host If I use FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso, I can do an install without any problems. Yours truly, Richard Yao -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

There is no backtrace. The only thing that I see printed after the boot screen with beastie is a single line: 'kernel trap 9 with interrupts disabled' 2. Verbose mode does not change it. 3. Removing `-cpu host` fixes it. Here is an excerpt of the host's /proc/cpuinfo: processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 16 model : 10 model name : AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor stepping : 0 microcode : 0x10000dc cpu MHz : 1600.000 cache size : 512 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 6 core id : 0 cpu cores : 6 apicid : 0 initial apicid : 0 fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 6 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt pdpe1gb rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow constant_tsc rep_good nopl nonstop_tsc extd_apicid aperfmperf pni monitor cx16 popcnt lahf_l m cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy abm sse4a misalignsse 3dnowprefetch osvw ibs skinit wdt cpb npt lbrv svm_lock nrip_save pausefilter bogomips : 6421.39 TLB size : 1024 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 48 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts ttp tm stc 100mhzsteps hwpstate [9] FreeBSD 9.0 had no problems in KVM with `-cpu host` on this system, so this would seem to be a regression. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
