Can you put a verbose dmesg up with debug.fdc.debugflags=255 set from
the loader?
I suspect you'll find it's floppy-related. Try setting
hint.fdc.0.disabled="1" from the loader and seeing if it goes away.
YUP, I hadnt looked before, but during the whole timeout the floppy
access light is on. There were some messages during boot from the
controller as well.
PFFT, floppies, who needs em, I configured it out and that eliminated
the problem :) So, do you need debug info on this, I could reenable
and capture if its helpful, otherwise I'm good at this point :)
Thanks for the tip Gavin.
Jack
