Hi All, Don't know wether problems with 6.0 BETA1 belong to freebsd-current_at_ or not, so if I'm wrong, sorry in advance. I'm about to test FreeBSD 6.0 BETA1 on my Dell Precision 720 Workstation. Just thought I'd help with testing :) I downloaded the 6.0 BETA1 bootonly iso and tried booting. The box worked with only minor problems under RELENG_5. The kernel of 6.0BETA1 doesn't boot. Since I don't have serial access, I try to transcribe what I can see on my screen, so hopefully there ain't to much typo's ... It's a hard hang, I can't even enable scroll lock to scroll up, so here we go with the last lines visible from a "boot -v": (probe20:sbp0:0:5:0): error 22 (probe20:sbp0:0:5:0): Unretryable Error (probe21:sbp0:0:6:0): error 22 (probe21:sbp0:0:7:0): Unretryable Error ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:4. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:8. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:11. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:13. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:2. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:3. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:5. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:6. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:9. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:10. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:12. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:14. 0 SCBs aborted ahd0: Selection Timeout on A:15. 0 SCBs aborted (probe1:ahd0:0:1:0): Retrying Command (probe0:ahd0:0:0:0): Retrying Command (ahd0:A:0:0): Sending PPR bus_width 1, period 8, offset fe, ppr_options fb (ahd0:A:0:0): Received PPR width 1, period 8, offset 7f, options c3 Filtered to width 1, period 8, offset 7f, options c3 ahd0: target 0 using 16 bit ahd0 target 0 synchronous with period = 0x8, offset = 0x7f(DT IU RTI) and that's it ... Paralell to that hard lock, the floppy LED is always on. Makes me wonder wether this has something to do with the problem ?! I guess not, since the errors above look like a problem with ahd0 ... I have tried 6_CURRENT on this box and I have one older working kernel from FreeBSD 6. A dmesg can be found there: http://unixoid.de/rabauke/freebsd/dmesg.6.current.working An old dmesg of FreeBSD 5.4 can be found at http://unixoid.de/rabauke/freebsd/dmesg.5.4 Since the SCSI controller (some kind of) worked before, I'd really like to know what had happened and why it ain't working anymore ... I can help testing, since this machine is a testing machine only :-) best regards and nevertheless keep on the good work, Marian PS.: Some good news though: Today I installed 6.0 BETA1 on an IBM xSeries 346, which has 4 Gb RAM and a dual XEON 3,2 GHz. Everything worked without problems. No hangs, no errors :-))Received on Fri Jul 29 2005 - 14:47:28 UTC
