I upgraded my 7.0 system to 7.1-RELEASE with freebsd-update only to find that it no longer boots correctly, instead crashing with a BTX backtrace. If I break to the loader prompt and use 'ls /boot', I also get a backtrace. A new install of 7.1 on this hardware using a separate SCSI card and drive array also leads to a BTX backtrace. I have copied this below as the first (most

Hi, I tried to upgrade one of my servers from FreeBSD 9.1 to 9.2 with freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.2-RELEASE after the first reboot the system hangs on boot with Invalid format ...

Hi again... The text under "BTX loader..." should appear as a block where each line is 56 characters long. "BTX halted" is on its own line.

The stack dump message is white text on black background. Right above the stack dump message, still in yellow-on-blue from the PXELINUX settings, is the text: Building the boot loader arguments Relocating the loader and the BTX Starting the BTX loader <change to white-on-black> BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 <stack dump> Would that business of "arguments...

Hello... In the split-second before the reboot, I can see that the pxeboot.0 process is indeed started-- pxeboot gets out just over 2 lines of text before the reboot occurs. So it's not a "ready" message. The text in question is (without *'s): ****************************************** PXE Loader 1.00 Building the boot loader arguments Relocating the loader and the

Hi We are experiencing a problem with one of our FreBSD 6.2 machines. The machine has been running fine for months until we had to reboot it. Now it doesn't boot anymore. After the boot loader we get what looks like a register dump: FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)heap boot: /boot/kernel/kernel\ int=0000000e err=00000002 efl=00010086 eip=c042426a eax=c06da7a8 ebx=c06da7a0

hi there. I'm trying to boot several OSes floppy images from a cdrom via memdisk. Actually, Linux and FreeBSD boots fine, but, while i'm using the same method, I couldn't get into booting netbsd nor openbsd. The boot process seems to hang up, in those two cases, when the second stage native bootloader try to load the kernel (i'm not absolutely sure about this). The native first

I have created a function to do something: i <- factor(sample(c("A", "B", "C", NA), 793, rep=T, prob=c(8, 7, 5, 1))) k <- factor(sample(c("X", "Y", "Z", NA), 793, rep=T, prob=c(12, 7, 9, 1))) mytable <- function(x){ xtb <- x btx <- x # do more with x, not relevant here cat("The table has been created,

Hello... With syslinux pre7, I am consistently getting what looks like a stack dump out of the FreeBSD loader. I have seen this behavior from pxeboot before. Maybe once out of every fifty or so runs of pxeboot, I would see an error message like the one below, but it was both rare and inconsistent. Now I am getting this message every time pxelinux invokes pxeboot: BTX loader 1.00 BTX

I have a new Polycom Spectralink 8002 and am having trouble with the configuration or the unit but I can't see what's wrong. The unit does not seem to even attempt to register with the Asterisk proxy but I can make calls to it. I have viewed the syslog from the device which it will actually write to the asterisk server so I know it can be reached. I have also run a sip debug and

Hi guys Can anyone give me any reason why BX should fail - tryig to install FreeBSD 4.7 on an old machine from CDROM. The machine loads a very old version of FreeBSD from hard drive (password long forgotten) so it seems to be running OK - it auto loads X windows - so the nachine seems to be running fine. Here is the output that I do not understand ;-( : int=00000000 err=00000000 efl=00030287

I was trying to load a FreeBSD 10 VM on my CentOS 6.4 machine, and it keeps hanging and not completing the boot. I have FBSD 9.x VM's running just fine, but if I try and load 10.x it's a no go.

Well, colleagues, I'm stuck a bit. I tried many different ways to setup system with vinum root (the only reference I found yet besides old "bootstrapping vinum" article is Joerg's commit message: http://freebsd.rambler.ru/bsdmail/cvs-all_2003/msg01225.html I failed. I have 4-stable system set up at ad0, and tried to set up pair of drives for new system at ad2 and ad3 (actually,

Hi, I try to full virtualize FreeBSD, and it does not boot. I made a VNC screenshot, attached, and also made a joint screenshot. I know about the bug, I am going to enforce (+1) that I also encounter the bug. Would you know any workaround? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hello, I have a problem with loader. I recently upgraded from 6_rel to 7_rel. Now when I install world there is a problem booting. Here is what I do: cd /usr/src make buildworld make buildkernel KERNCONF=BLACK make installkernel KERNCONF=BLACK At this point I can reboot and all is good. After boot I install the new world: cd /usr/src mergemaster -p reboot into single user mode cd /usr/src make

Folks -- I''m trying to run FreeBSD 6.0 on a VT-x based Xen system. I''m experiencing a problem where the boot loader is crashing before the FreeBSD kernel (proper) is loaded. The sequence of operations is that the VMX domain is constructed, the BIOS is executed, GRUB loads, I type the instructions to load FreeBSD (a boot loader) and that code begins to execute and then

Hi Folks, I''ve got a 4 Tb pool on a 3511 array. The pool was created from, and is mounted on, an old 280r. I''d like to export the pool from the 280r and import it to a shiny new x2200. Will this work? Will the x2200 understand the disk labels made by the 280r? Some tests we''ve done on a smaller, non-production pool suggest not. Suggestions or pointers welcome.

Hello all! We are testing virtualization with two Sun X2200 M2 (2 x Opteron Dual Core) with Xen (3.1.3, locally compiled, Debian etch), KVM (Debian Sid) and Windows Virtual Server (Windows 2003 Server). We have tried paravirtualization and also full virtualization (Pacifica). In all cases we have experienced problems regarding stability in the systems, specifically erratic lost of network

Hi I'm having a problem with setting up a kickstart environment based on CentOS 5.2 x86_64, on a Sun X2200 M2 server (both the server and the client in the kickstart environment are Sun X2200 M2 systems): the first attempt to load stage2.img fails with the error screen: "unable to retrieve http://192.168.11.10/source/images/stage2.img". Pressing the "OK" button brings up
