Hello
I'm trying to install FreeBSD on IBM BladeCenter HS20. But all my attempts are unsuccessful.
I think the problem is each blade uses all devices (CD, FDD, keyboard, mouse) through USB.
I began my attempts from 5.4
It stops on scanning atkbd0. I tried to choose loading kernel with USB keyboard in the boot menu. But this time I got the kernel panic after scanning atapci0:
fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0x5
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
Then I tried 4.11. If I boot from CD, the loader doesn't find CD and kernel isn't found accordingly. If I boot from floppy, the kernel is found successfully but the scanning of the devices is stopping on atkbd0 again.
I still hope to find a solution for this problem.
Thanks in advance for any help.
