FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE can't boot on an ASUS K7V Motherboard. It crashes on the second? stage boot. Happens from either CDROM or Harddisk. The ASUS K7M works fine. Happens with either BIOS revision 1003 (original) or 1005.

Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->rnordier I'll look at this.
I also had this problem booting a 4.0-RELEASE CD, however, it worked perfectly with a 4.1-RELEASE CD. Did either of you try a newer CD? I have an Athlon 800 with an Asus K7V. -dan -- Dan Peterson / danp@danp.net / 415-505-4855

The support was added in late June 2000. What versions of /boot/boot2 and /boot/loader are you using; and can you try with the latest from -stable or -current? -- Robert Nordier rnordier@nordier.com rnordier@FreeBSD.org

This works on both the K7V and the A7V Asus Boards without problems. If you have a fast Internet connection and a CD Burner, try to download the ISO Image from ftp.freebsd.org and burn your own CD. This was, what i used for the tests because the "official" 4.1-RELEASE CDs came last week. I must admit, that i had not tested it again with the "official" CDs yet. -- ATS ( ats@first.gmd.de or Andreas.Schulz@gmd.de ) Andreas Schulz GMD-FIRST 12489 Berlin-Adlershof Kekulestrasse 7 Gebaeude 13.10 Tel: +49-30-6392-1856 or +49-177-2134745 Germany/Europe Tel: +49-30-364 386 30
