A bunch of use have colo'd a server at an ISP. We each run our own KVM
(I have no other details at present). I've been running FreeBSD 7.3
inside my KVM (everyone else is running Linux.
I encountered a problem when I tried to upgrade the install from
7.2-stable to 7.3-stable.
The boot process hangs. The last thing shown is the memory in the
system. I'll copy/paste from /var/log/messages to demonstrate the point
last thing I can see on the VNC screen.
