HARDWARE= DELL 1955 BLADE
OS Version= CURRENT i386(2007-02-01)
When I assign an IP to one of the BCE interfaces on the system the kernel
PANICS.
>From KDB:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Panic: invalid ife->ifm_date (0xa) in mii_phy_setmedia
Cpuid = 0
KDB: enter:panic
[ thread pid 715 tid 100041]
Stopped at kdb_enter + 0x2b:nop
---------------------------------------------------------------
I then type "panic" and it writes a vmcore dump.
But when I analyze the vmcore using kgdb and run a "bt" it only gives me the
backtrace of the kdb and shutdown.
Is there a way to write a dump without kdb interfering?
Another thing, I tried to install CURRENT-snapshot-2007-01(AMD64), but after it
boots from the USB DVDROM. Sysinstall cannot access the USB DVDROM.
Is this a known problem?
Regards
Conrad
