Hi there. I don't see anything spurious with your output, other than that you don't have any vga* or sc* lines. I guess that you've grabbed that over a serial console, right? I suspect that your alpha box boots just fine, only that your console settings are wrong. What's the value of the 'console' env variable in SRM and in the FreeBSD loader? It should be 'serial', otherwise type 'set console serial' followed by 'init'. Break into the FreeBSD loader and 'set console=comconsole'. You should also add a '-h' to /boot.conf and set up /etc/ttys to fire up a getty on your serial line. Check out [1] and [2]. \n\n [1] http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serialconsole-setup.html [2] http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/console-server/freebsd.html _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-alpha To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
