I bought some new hardware the other day, including an Asus M4A785TD-V
EVO motherboard and an AMD Phenom II X6 1100T CPU.
The problem is that the kernel freezes when booting any of: bsd.rd, for
either amd64 or i386, -current or 4.8-stable; any GENERIC kernel for
amd64/i386 -current or 4.8-stable on an installed system. (partial
dmesgs below).
I have a spare P4 and can easily swap the HDD between it and the new
box, so I can install i386 or amd64 on it, and drop the drive into the
new box to test.
Although I haven't a clue what most of the BIOS knobs actually do, I've
tried fiddling with every setting I can, and I always get the same
freeze. The knobs I've played with include:
- ACPI SRAT table enabled/disabled
- Plug and Play OS No/Yes
- Suspend mode Auto/S1 (POS) only/S3 only
- ACPI 2.0 support enabled/disabled
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I'm dying to get
my OS of choice working on this machine!
Since I have a spare box and can swap HDDs easily, I'm more than willing
to work with anyone to test code in amd64 or i386-land in 4.9-current.
I'm ready to freak out that my brand-new workstation won't run OpenBSD. :(
Below are (probably too many) hand-typed dmesgs in the hope that
together they might help someone deduce what the problem is.
FWIW, I've just tried today's amd64-current snapshot (March 14) and I
get the same results as with the March 2 snap shown below.
OpenBSD amd64/4.9-current installed on a P4, HDD moved to AMD box:
