No, building an ACPI enabled bsd.rd was quite easy. It took more tries
to build a working bsd for the running system -- just adding ACPI and
MP to the generic kernel does NOT work with -current code -- than it did
to get a working bsd.rd.
However, the system dies under load. Took be about 4 tries to complete
a build on the box.
Hmm... sounds like I shouldn't update my source tree (it's still from
Nov. 12, 2006). I had no crashes at all here so far.
The lack of a keyboard under ddb doesn't make debugging
easy.
Yes, that's a bit of a problem. It seems that the keyboard doesn't
work at the boot prompt either. Though for me that's exactly what I
want, I want to have as little local access to my system as possible
(it will run in a datacenter soon).
Tas.
