here's a weird one.
HP T430 Thin Client, reloaded with OpenBSD.
In it's intended use, it runs Linux in BIOS boot mode. OpenBSD's
installer will boot that way, but the kernel is unable to see the
16g storage device. In UEFI boot mode, OpenBSD works well,
including running X. This machine has ONLY HDMI and DisplayPort
video connections (one each). There's no com port on the box for
an alternative view of what is going on.
The problem comes when I put them to work without a monitor.
The machine will boot fine, run fine...but sysupgrade fails to upgrade
the system. It downloads the intended files, it reboots, and a few
moments later, it's back up and running -- the old kernel. Plug an
HDMI monitor in, run sysupgrade again, and it sees the upgrade marker
and does the upgrade. Textbook Heisenbug :-/
For giggles, I did a sysupgrade -k (keep the files), let it reboot,
in the root directory was bsd.upgrade as expected. I copied
bsd.upgrade to /bsd, forcing it one way or another to run
bsd.upgrade ... and the result was a hung system. Never came back
after the reboot, no idea why. When I moved it to be near an HDMI
monitor, it promptly booted, complained about permissions on
bsd.upgrade, but upgraded perfectly (but I am not sure which of
the two copies of the kernel it used).
What can I do to help provide info to determine what is going on
here?
Nick.
