Boot Problems - Intel PRO 1000XT


By Reynolds - usenet poster


Hi

I have just purchased the OpenBSD 3.1 CD and am attempting to install it
onto a Dell PowerEdge 1650.
The Dell has 2 x Embedded Intel PRO 1000XT (82544EI) NIC's.
However, the system hangs whem booting from the CD at the same point every
time with the following output:

There is also an Intel PRO 100 NIC that it seems to be happy with.
When I disable the 2 Intel PRO 1000XT's the system boots fine and allows
configuration of the single PRO 100.
If I disable just one of the 1000TX'x, the same error message as above
appears, just with "pci1".

I hope this is enough information and that somebody out there has a solution
to this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Jonathan Liversidge

i had the same problem. it's been fixed in current so installing a
snapshot should fix tour problem. it was a problem with pchb.

the original thread was

and the file needed to be fixed is:

there have been other changes made in current that will help other
hardware in that box, so i reccomend you install current.

p.s. - a full dmesg (even with gx devices disabled) would have been
necessary to diagnose the problem. i'm assuming the problem is the same
as mine given your hardware description, but a full dmesg would have
verified you had pchb giving errors as well.
