The system is using DDR333 ram, the onboard IDE with UltraDMA disabled, and a ATI 8500 AIW for video. Due to needing firewire support I previously had linux installed on the system, and it was able to run for extended periods of time, so I don't believe there is any hardware interoperability issues. >Description: I downloaded the ISOs and checked the MD5s before and after writing the data to the CDs. When I try to install anything other than minimal the install fails (usually while trying to pkg_add perl.) If I do the minimal install passwd fails to run when trying to set the root password, but the install finishes. When I boot into the system after that I'm forced into single user mode, and when I try to run /bin/sh it cannot execute it. >How-To-Repeat: Install FreeBSD 5.0 i386 on a SS51 based system. >Fix: None that I know of. Could it be possible that the kernel is somehow misidentifying the processor, activating some processor specific extensions, and loading the executables into memory in a way that the chip doesn't understand? >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: From: Matt Anderson To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: i386/48385: Can boot, but can't execute any programs on FreeBSD 5.0 Date: Wed, 5 Mar 2003 23:56:34 -0500 I tried installing FreeBSD 4.5 on the system, (I didn't have anything newer laying around, and I didn't want to download 4.8.) And I was able to run programs once the initial copying was done. I enabled Linux compatibilty and setup X, along with setting root's passwd. The install finished sucessfully then when I booted into it I got this: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x0 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8 :0xc01b1260 stack pointer = 0x10:0xc04b8fec frame pointer = 0x10:0xc04b8ff8 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = Idle interrupt mask = net tty bio cam trap number = 12 panic: page fault Uptime: 0s I hope this helps, I'd be willing to try a later version than 4.5. I was thinking about trying 4.8 anyway since it has firewire support. -matt State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: sos State-Changed-When: Thu Jun 5 03:28:48 PDT 2003 State-Changed-Why: You need to upgrade to 5.1 to get support for this SiS chipset. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=48385 >Unformatted:
