Today I was trying to install OpenBSD/amd64 4.1 GENERIC on a system with the following motherboard: http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?modelmenu=2&model=1418&l1=3&l2=101&l3=324&l4=0
But during installation I got the following blue lines (which I've noted on a piece of paper by hand): uvm_fault (0xfffffe80 0a2de810, 0x7f8000267000, 0, 1) -> e fatal page fault in supervisor mode trap type 6 code 0 rip ffffffff802540a7 cs 8 vflags 10216 cr2 7f8000267fb0 cpl1 0 rsp ffff800067015c80 syncing discs ...done At which time system halts, or becomes unresponsive. (Actually, this error occurs during my custom install script, in site41.tgz, after usual OpenBSD installation finishes.) I was suspicious about pciide, but VIA 8237A is in the supported hardware list. So I've installed OpenBSD on the same HD, but now on another hardware, then inserted the HD back into this system again, but after a couple of services start, I got another uvm_fault error (it's similar but not the same, if I recall correctly), and the system hangs. Some of the other parts are: Athlon64 4200+ X2, Kingston 1GB RAM, WD 250GB SATA2 HD. I've disabled many options in the bios, but nothing changed. If I cannot find a solution, the board will be returned. Does anybody else use this motherboard too? Do you have any problems? If you had a similar issue, how did you fix it, any special bios settings? What could be the source of the uvm_fault error: motherboard, RAM, or even the processor itself? Otherwise I have installed OpenBSD with my custom script on other amd64 hardware without major problems. I would appreciate any help.
