--- Comment #4 from rall...@hotmail.com --- I have the same outcome: Failed to load kernel 'kernel' when I use all 8 spindles (11.1TB). BIOS boot configuration worked fine with 6 x 2.8TB RAID 10 (8.3TB, two hot spares). The only hardware "configuration" I changed was going from 6 x 2.8TB RAID 10 to 8 x 2.8TB RAID 10 (and re-init) and then re-install and re-boot. I did this for both BIOS boot configuration and UEFI boot configuration with the same results. I have left it in UEFI mode because I now have a USB flash drive loaded with FreeBSD to rescue the box if it doesn't reboot on me. The flash is plugged into an internal connector. It's easier to boot from this in UEFI mode vs BIOS mode and I get a serial console, I just have to hit F11 and choose the flash drive. I originally thought this was an EFI issue and I had created a ticket with that working assumption, it's here: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=249045. I was using an 8 x 2.8TB RAID 6 (16TB) configuration then. I didn't really experiment with RAID configurations with the premise that the size of the RAID was the issue. The reason why I now don't think this EFI related, it does the same thing in BIOS boot mode and I get an error _during_ install with 12.2-STABLE (r369250). In the previous ticket, I used 12.1-RELEASE and I didn't get any errors during install. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
