I did some more testing, and I made an error on the ALIX 1C since it
does boot but it hangs on devd....
but for WRAP 1C and 2E:
PC Engines WRAP.2B/2C v1.11
640 KB Base Memory
130048 KB Extended Memory
01F0 Master 044A CF CARD 2GB
Phys C/H/S 3909/16/63 Log C/H/S 977/64/63
1 FreeBSD
2 FreeBSD
F6 PXE
Boot: 1 ########
Here it ends....
Would you recommend to downgrade the bios? I have version 1.11 on all
boards.
thanks Marten
