freebsd-questions:
I've attempted three posts in as many weeks to the PC-BSD "testing"
mailing list to no avail.
I've also noted disappearing ISO files on their WWW download server.
Any comments or suggestions regarding PC-BSD project infrastructure?
Below, please find my latest post. Any suggestions on how to resolve
the issue?
TIA,
David

testing:
I'm a PC-BSD noob who has downloaded and installed:
PCBSD10.2-RELEASE-08-19-2015-x64-netinstall.iso
on a Dell Inspiron E1505 (6400):
Motherboard with on-board video (Intel 945 GM)
Intel Core 2 Duo T7400 processor
2 @ 1024 MB DDR2-666 - Hynix HYMP512S64CP8-Y5
SAMSUNG_SSD_UM410_Series_2_5__16GB
When I boot the machine and allow GRUB to start:
PC BSD (10.2-RELEASE-p14-up-20160207_133135)-2016-02-07 13:29
the machine gets trapped in an infinite loop flashing between text mode
and a black screen (starting X?), one black screen per "vm_fault: pager
read error, pid XXXX (PCDM-session)" line:

Pushing the power button causes PC-BSD to go back to text mode and shut
down.
What is the problem?
How do I fix it?
TIA,
David
