When trying to boot from a mounted a virtual CD from supermicro IPMI the system begins an infinite loop. Installation can not be performed. Also mounting a virtual CD from supermicro IPMI causes the following messages: ugen0.4: <vendor 0x0ea0> at usbus0 umass1: <vendor 0x0ea0 product 0x2222, class 0/0, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 4> on usbus0 umass1: SCSI over Bulk-Only; quirks = 0x0000 umass1:3:1:-1: Attached to scbus3 umass2: <vendor 0x0ea0 product 0x2222, class 0/0, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 4> on usbus0 umass2: 8070i (ATAPI) over Bulk-Only; quirks = 0x0000 umass2:4:2:-1: Attached to scbus4 (probe0:umass-sim1:1:0:0): TEST UNIT READY.

I am facing the same issues whenever I try to install FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE from an external USB DRIVE. The only way for to boot is to specify cd9660:/dev/iso9660/FREEBSD_INSTALL
FYI, I did notice this problem with 9.0 but I have tested mounting 9.1-RELEASE isos over supermicro IPMI and it works fine. Please let me know if I can provide more information about this. -- Rob Lampe Tranquil Hosting / RootBSD www.tqhosting.com www.rootbsd.net

I can confirm this still is an issue with 10.0-RELEASE isos (and with 9.2-RELEASE). The workaround is to wait, and wait until the virtual CD is detected, and then enter this (as mentioned previously): cd9660:/dev/iso9660/FREEBSD_INSTALL Do not press enter to get an empty prompt, because this will reset the machine. This is mentioned on the console, but this BOFH hasn't very good memory ;-) It isn't a big problem, because of the workaround, but it took me while before I found out about the workaround.
