Hi, My old diskless dual Pentium I 100MHz system does not like the latest code. I use etherboot to boot it. I have tried both an UP and SMP kernel but it panic in the same way. Looking at the low address values, it looks as if it happens very early. Maybe something depends on the loader initializing things nowadays? A kernel of about 2 weeks ago did boot without a problem, even an SMP one. On bootup this is what I see: ######################################### WARNING: loader(8) metadata is missing! instruction pointer = 0x0:0xa00 stack pointer = 0x0:0xffe frame pointer = 0x0:0x0 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0x0, type 0x0 = DPL 0, pres 0, def32 0, gran 0 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, vm86, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 () kernel: type 30 trap, code=0 Stopped at 0xa00: cli db> ######################################### John -- John Hay -- John.Hay_at_icomtek.csir.co.za / jhay_at_FreeBSD.orgReceived on Mon Nov 10 2003 - 07:29:48 UTC
