>Description: When attempting to install FreeBSD 10.0-RC4 -or- 10.0-RC5 from cd disc1, the resulting system does not boot up after installation on an asus h87m-e motherboard. I used multiple sata hard disks. a WD sata2 1TB & a Seagate sata3 3TB drive. I tried normal install options using 'whole disk' guided partitioning, as well as ZFS single disk installs using MBR & GPT options. Any/every install option has been tested good by inserting the hard disk into an older machine and successfully booting the OS. A fresh install using a 9.2-RELEASE cd dic1 will boot fine on the asus h87m-e, however the onboard ethernet is not recognized at boot. >How-To-Repeat: install a fresh copy of 10.0-RC5 on an asus h87m-e motherboard, and try to boot up system disk. >Fix: the work around I used was to install 9.2-RELEASE, add a usb ethernet adaptor, and then use freebsd-update to update system to 10.0-RC5 successfully. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
