FreeBSD 12.0-RC3 Now Available
Hello everyone! We have a problem since version 10.3 (bug 209468 [1]). There is no availability to boot system if some of adaptec raid controllers are used. Could you be so kind as to pay attention to it?

It seems to work without issues with older ASR 6805 having 8 disks in RAID10 (below). It would be nice if you could try installing this and report if it works for you on newer adapters that you have; if everything looks OK, I'll put it out for review, and hopefully commit. https://people.freebsd.org/~yuripv/FreeBSD-13.0-CURRENT-amd64-20181202-r341364-disc1-aacraid.iso NOTE: as this is a -current snapshot, please use it for testing only. aacraid0: mem 0xdbf0-0xdbff,0xdbebf800-0xdbeb,0xdbebf400-0xdbebf4ff irq 76 at device 0.0 on pci5 aacraid0: Enable Raw I/O aacraid0: Enable 64-bit array aacraid0: using MSI interrupts aacraid0: New comm. interface type1 enabled aacraid0: Adaptec 6805, aacraid driver 3.2.10-1 aacraidp0 on aacraid0 aacraidp1 on aacraid0 aacraidp2 on aacraid0 aacraidp3 on aacraid0 da0 at aacraidp0 bus 0 scbus7 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SPC-2 SCSI device da0: Serial Number A12B55B400 da0: 300.000MB/s transfers da0: Command Queueing enabled da0: 1716224MB (3514826752 512 byte sectors) ses0 at aacraidp3 bus 0 scbus10 target 0 lun 0 ses0: Fixed Enclosure Services SPC-3 SCSI device signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: FreeBSD-12.0-RC3-i386-disc1.iso does not boot
I seem to have the same issue with the PowerPC CD (since the alpha stage images). It will show up in the boot menu but once selected it doesn’t work at all, just inverts colors. Tested on both my G5 DP and eMac G4, which the latter works only on the now obsolete 10.4 and current 11.1. 11.2 doesn’t boot all the way (hangs at cryptosoft0 in the boot sequence) Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone On Sunday, December 2, 2018, 7:23 PM, Rick Macklem wrote: miltonott wrote: >>On Sat Dec 1 21:51:05 UTC 2018 CenturyLink Customer wrote: >>> Hello all:Sorry, this old Pentium 4 refurbished test machine has been >>> obstinate >>> during ALPHA, BETA, and now RC.I had a workaround using the BTX bootloader >>> from >>> ALPHA8 and pasted it into BETA3; meanwhile,remastering the .iso disk >>> afterwards.
