Hello,
I'm trying to install FreeBSD/amd64 to dual Opteron machine.
M/B: MSI K8T Master2-FAR
CPU: AMD Opteron 240 x 2
Mem: 512MB x 2 ( in Slot 1 and 3, Single channel)
I had some trouble with this installation.
I couldn't boot FreeBSD normally. Even from CD-ROM.
1. dual CPU : Normal boot
HUNG UP after memory check(?).
(dmesg)
real memory = 1072627712 (1022MB)
avail memory = 1009385472 (962MB)
<then, HUNG>
Messages flow very fast! Looks like broken...
So, I couldn't read all.
But It's something like this
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
cpuid = 0; apic id = 00
fault virtual address = 0x6c
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
:
2. dual CPU : Safe Mode / disable ACPI
Trouble 1. did not occur.
But, after mounting root(/) filesystem, it HUNGs.
So.... I removed one CPU, and installed FreeBSD/amd64. Succeeded!
And I re-compile kernel without SMP option.
Now, this dual Opteron machine boot normally. But vainly.
Does anyone have any idea?
If this is known bug, what can I do for ethis.
I'll appreciate any help.
Sincerely
