I was attempting to install a 4.5-beta kernel on my machine, which is currently running an older 4.4 beta just fine. The 4.5 boot hands immediately after
softraid0 at root With some wdo (pciide0:0:0) ata timeout messages which I unfrotunately cannot capture from that machine. I let it sit there for at least 15 minutes to see if it would get over it, maybe downgrading it's PIO mode or something. It did not. The messages looked something like: wd0(pciide1:0:0): timeout type: ata c_bcount: 512 c_skip: 0 Any hints?
