And this problem was already fixed rev.1.14 for 5-current and rev.1.10.2.3 for 4-stable of release/sysinstall/pccard.c. If you want to install 4.1.1-RELEASE, please use below ``fixed' install floppies. http://people.FreeBSD.org/~sanpei/4.1.1-RELEASE/kern.flp http://people.FreeBSD.org/~sanpei/4.1.1-RELEASE/mfsroot.flp State Changed From-To: open->closed fixed rev.1.14 for 5-current and rev.1.10.2.3 for 4-stable of release/sysinstall/pccard.c. |
Attempting to reinstall 4.1.1-RELEASE from a local FTP server (running FreeBSD 4.0) onto a Toshiba Libretto model 30CT via Ethernet using a 3Com 3C589D on the Libratto; Libretto floppy drive is also connected via a PCCard interface; FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE installed successfully using the same methodology: 1) If I attempt to remove the floppy PCCard to replace it with the 3C589 (as worked with 4.1) I get a report "ep0: No irq?!" on the debug screen. The replacement is done at the point where I have selected a set of IRQs for the PCCards. 2) If I leave the floppy PCCard in place I do not get this message; however the PCCard is detected and declared to the kernel but is allocated IRQ 5 *which is not in the set I have selected as free IRQs* (the set is 10, 11, and 15); installation proceeds for a while but fails when actually trying to read the first file in the "bin" distribution set - it gets "stuck" and I suspect a "lost" IRQ Please note that I have found with various earlier versions of FreeBSD that on this machine I should set the PCIC into "polling mode" by selection IRQ number 0 (meaning none) for the PCIC itself. I did this using the configuration editor command "irq pcic0 0" on all my attempts to install 4.1.1. Since the installation got to the stage of initialising the filesystems before getting "stuck" i now have a machine I can't use; I could reinstall 4.1 but am reluctant to do so if this can be solved fairly promptly. I wanted to use the most up-to-date version of OpenSSL to generate a "root" certificate for a certificate authority. How-To-Repeat: Problem is repeatable by following the description.
