- <question>
- <para>I go to boot from the hard disk for the first time
- after installing &os;, the kernel loads and probes my
- hardware, but stops with messages like:</para>
-
- <screen>changing root device to wd1s1a panic: cannot mount root</screen>
- <para>What is wrong? What can I do?</para>
-
- <para>What is this
- <literal>bios_drive:interface(unit,partition)kernel_name</literal>
- thing that is displayed with the boot help?</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>There is a longstanding problem in the case where the
- boot disk is not the first disk in the system. The BIOS
- uses a different numbering scheme to &os;, and working
- out which numbers correspond to which is difficult to get
- right.</para>
-
- <para>In the case where the boot disk is not the first disk
- in the system, &os; can need some help finding it. There
- are two common situations here, and in both of these cases,
- you need to tell &os; where the root filesystem is. You
- do this by specifying the BIOS disk number, the disk type
- and the &os; disk number for that type.</para>
-
- <para>The first situation is where you have two IDE disks,
- each configured as the master on their respective IDE
- busses, and wish to boot &os; from the second disk. The
- BIOS sees these as disk 0 and disk 1, while &os; sees
- them as <filename>wd0</filename> and
- <filename>wd2</filename>.</para>
-
- <para>&os; is on BIOS disk 1, of type
- <literal>wd</literal> and the &os; disk number is 2, so
- you would say:</para>
-
- <screen><userinput>1:wd(2,a)kernel</userinput></screen>
-
- <para>Note that if you have a slave on the primary bus, the
- above is not necessary (and is effectively wrong).</para>
-
- <para>The second situation involves booting from a SCSI disk
- when you have one or more IDE disks in the system. In this
- case, the &os; disk number is lower than the BIOS disk
- number. If you have two IDE disks as well as the SCSI disk,
- the SCSI disk is BIOS disk 2, type <literal>da</literal> and
- &os; disk number 0, so you would say:</para>
-
- <screen><userinput>2:da(0,a)kernel</userinput></screen>
-
- <para>To tell &os; that you want to boot from BIOS disk
- 2, which is the first SCSI disk in the system. If you only
- had one IDE disk, you would use '1:' instead.</para>
-
- <para>Once you have determined the correct values to use,
- you can put the command exactly as you would have typed it
- in the <filename>/boot.config</filename> file using a
- standard text editor. Unless instructed otherwise, &os;
- will use the contents of this file as the default response
- to the <literal>boot:</literal> prompt.</para>

- <question>
- <para>I go to boot from the hard disk for the first time
- after installing &os;, but the Boot Manager prompt just
- prints <literal>F?</literal> at the boot menu each time but
- the boot won't go any further.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>The hard disk geometry was set incorrectly in the
- Partition editor when you installed &os;. Go back into
- the partition editor and specify the actual geometry of your
- hard disk. You must reinstall &os; again from the
- beginning with the correct geometry.</para>
-
- <para>If you are failing entirely in figuring out the
- correct geometry for your machine, here's a tip: Install a
- small DOS partition at the beginning of the disk and install
- &os; after that. The install program will see the DOS
- partition and try to infer the correct geometry from it,
- which usually works.</para>
-
- <para>The following tip is no longer recommended, but is left here
- for reference:</para>
-
- <blockquote>
- <para>If you are setting up a truly dedicated &os;
- server or workstation where you don't care for (future)
- compatibility with DOS, Linux or another operating system,
- you've also got the option to use the entire disk (`A' in
- the partition editor), selecting the non-standard option
- where &os; occupies the entire disk from the very first
- to the very last sector. This will leave all geometry
- considerations aside, but is somewhat limiting unless
- you're never going to run anything other than &os; on a
- disk.</para>

- <question>
- <para>The &man.mcd.4; driver keeps thinking that it has
- found a device and this stops my Intel EtherExpress card
- from working.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>Use the UserConfig utility (see
- <filename>HARDWARE.TXT</filename>) and disable the probing
- of the <filename>mcd0</filename> and
- <filename>mcd1</filename> devices. Generally speaking,
- you should only leave the devices that you will be using
- enabled in your kernel.</para>

- <question>
- <para>&os; claims to support the 3Com PCMCIA card, but my
- card isn't recognized when it's plugged into my
- laptop.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>There are a couple of possible problems. First of
- all, &os; does not support multi-function cards, so if
- you have a combo Ethernet/modem card (such as the 3C562), it
- won't work. The default driver for the 3C589 card was
- written just like all of the other drivers in &os;, and
- depend on the card's own configuration data stored in NVRAM
- to work. You must correctly configure &os;'s driver to
- match the IRQ, port, and IOMEM stored in NVRAM.</para>
-
- <para>Unfortunately, the only program capable of reading
- them is the 3COM supplied DOS program. This program must be
- run on an absolutely clean system (no other drivers must be
- running), and the program will whine about CARD-Services not
- being found, but it will continue. This is necessary to
- read the NVRAM values. You want to know the IRQ, port, and
- IOMEM values (the latter is called the CIS tuple by 3COM).
- The first two can be set in the program, the third is
- un-settable, and can only be read. Once you have these
- values, set them in UserConfig and your card will be
- recognized.</para>
- </answer>

- <question>
- <para>&os; finds my PCMCIA network card, but no packets
- appear to be sent even though it claims to be working.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>Many PCMCIA cards have the ability to use either the
- 10-Base2 (BNC) or 10-BaseT connectors for connecting to the
- network. The driver is unable to <quote>auto-select</quote>
- the correct connector, so you must tell it which connector
- to use. In order to switch between the two connectors, the
- link flags must be set. Depending on the model of the card,
- <option>-link0 link1</option> or <option>-link0
- -link1</option> will choose the correct network connector.
- You can set these in &man.sysinstall.8; by using the
- <literal>Extra options to ifconfig:</literal> field in the
- network setup screen.</para>
- </answer>
- </qandaentry>
- <qandaentry>
- <question>
- <para>The system finds my &man.ed.4; network card, but I
- keep getting device timeout errors.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>Your card is probably on a different IRQ from what is
- specified in the kernel configuration. The ed driver does
- not use the `soft' configuration by default (values entered
- using EZSETUP in DOS), but it will use the software
- configuration if you specify <literal>?</literal> in the IRQ field of your
- kernel config file.</para>
-
- <para>Either move the jumper on the card to a hard
- configuration setting (altering the kernel settings if
- necessary), or specify the IRQ as <literal>-1</literal> in UserConfig or <literal>?</literal>
- in your kernel config file. This will tell the kernel to
- use the soft configuration.</para>
-
- <para>Another possibility is that your card is at IRQ 9,
- which is shared by IRQ 2 and frequently a cause of problems
- (especially when you have a VGA card using IRQ 2!). You
- should not use IRQ 2 or 9 if at all possible.</para>
- </answer>

- <question>
- <para>I have a Matsushita/Panasonic drive but it isn't
- recognized by the system.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>Make certain that the I/O port that the &man.matcd.4; driver
- is set to is correct for the host interface card you have.
- (Some SoundBlaster DOS drivers report a hardware I/O port
- address for the CD-ROM interface that is 0x10 lower than it
- really is.)</para>
-
- <para>If you are unable to determine the settings for the
- card by examining the board or documentation, you can use
- UserConfig to change the 'port' address (I/O port) to -1 and
- start the system. This setting causes the driver to look at
- a number of I/O ports that various manufacturers use for
- their Matsushita/Panasonic/Creative CD-ROM interfaces. Once
- the driver locates the address, you should run UserConfig
- again and specify the correct address. Leaving the 'port'
- parameter set to -1 increases the amount of time that it
- takes the system to boot, and this could interfere with
- other devices.</para>
-
- <para>The double-speed Matsushita CR-562 and CR-563 are the
- only drives that are supported.</para>

- <question>
- <para>I booted the install floppy on my IBM ThinkPad (tm)
- laptop, and the keyboard is all messed up.</para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>Older IBM laptops use a non-standard keyboard
- controller, so you must tell the keyboard driver (atkbd0) to
- go into a special mode which works on the ThinkPads. Change
- the atkbd0 'Flags' to 0x4 in UserConfig and it should work
- fine. (Look in the Input Menu for 'Keyboard'.)</para>

- <question>
- <para>When I try to boot the install floppy, I see the
- following message and nothing seems to be happening. I
- cannot enter anything from the keyboard either.</para>
-
- <screen>Keyboard: no</screen>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>Due to lack of space, full support for old XT/AT
- (84-key) keyboards is no longer available in the bootblocks.
- Some notebook computers may also have this type of keyboard.
- If you are still using this kind of hardware, you will see
- the above message appears when you boot from the CD-ROM or
- an install floppy.</para>
-
- <para>As soon as you see this message, hit the space bar,
- and you will see the prompt:</para>
-
-<screen>&gt;&gt; FreeBSD/i386 BOOT

- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>These CD-ROM drives are currently not supported by
- &os;. The command sets for these drives are not compatible
- with the double-speed CR-562 and CR-563 drives.</para>

- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>his problem may occur in a system with a 3com 3c509
- Ethernet adapter. The &man.ep.4; device driver appears to
- be sensitive to probes for other devices that also use
- address 0x300. Boot your &os; system by power cycling
- the machine (turn off and on). At the
- <literal>Boot:</literal> prompt specify the
- <option>-c</option>. This will invoke UserConfig (see
- <xref linkend="repairing"/> above).
- Use the <literal>disable</literal>
- command to disable the device probes for all devices at
- address 0x300 except the ep0 driver. On exit, your machine
- should successfully boot &os;.</para>

- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>This is a known problem, and will hopefully be fixed
- in the future. In order to get your system installed at
- all, boot with the <option>-c</option> option into
- UserConfig, but <emphasis>don't</emphasis> use the pretty
- visual mode but the plain old CLI mode. Type:</para>
-
- <screen><userinput>eisa 12</userinput>
-<userinput>quit</userinput></screen>
-
- <para>at the prompt. (Instead of `quit', you might also
- type `visual', and continue the rest of the configuration
- session in visual mode.) While it's recommended to compile
- a custom kernel, dset now also understands to save
- this value.</para>
-
- <para>Refer to the FAQ topic 3.16 for an explanation of the
- problem, and for how to continue. Remember that you can

- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>With Compaq being always a little different from other
- systems, they do not announce their floppy drive in the CMOS
- RAM of an Aero notebook. Therefore, the floppy disk driver
- assumes there is no drive configured. Go to the UserConfig
- screen, and set the Flags value of the fdc0 device to 0x1.
- This pretends the existence of the first floppy drive (as a
- 1.44 MB drive) to the driver without asking the CMOS at
