System: FreeBSD FreeBSD 5.2.1-RC1 #1: Fri Jan 16 12:57:32 EST 2004 root at pc8.atlantisservices.com:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/GENERIC i386
Tyan 2466 MP board with only one Athlon Socket A 2400 MP processor with various networking cards.
>Description:
Upgraded machine from 5.1 to 5.2-RC1. Everything went smooth. However, after rebooting, the re0 card which I was attempting to install with the release (works find on 5.2) decides to start giving resets and doesn't respond. I switch back to the rl0 card I was using (RealTek 530TX+ which also works fine on 5.2) and it is now detected as an xl0 card.) is also giving hardware resets and not responding. (Yes, I changed all the required settings in /etc/rc.conf.)
Next, I go to reboot and the machine syncs the drives, prints "Rebooting" and hangs. It has to be hardware reset.
Everything worked fine on 5.1.
>How-To-Repeat:
I did a simple upgrade that I've been used to performing on the OS. I downloaded what I thought was 5.2 release from the cvs repository at ~8:30 pm EST on 2/4/04. I performed a: make buildworld, make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC, make installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC, rebooted to single-user, mergemaster -p, make installworld, mergemaster, exit to multiuser. This was performed on a straight 5.1 install with Vinum volumes. Everything seems ok on the machine right now except the network drivers aren't working and I have to power cycle the box to if I reboot.
>Fix:
Unknown at this time. (Gulp... please help!)
