Hi, I've just acquired a new Dell PowerEdge 4600 server (2x 2.4GHz Xeons, 2GB, PERC 3/Di, ...) which I've installed FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE on.
All the hardware seems to be detected okay, and I've rebuilt a kernel with unnecessary drivers removed and to take advantage of the SMP, and this seems to be working in my limited testing so far. The only problem I have, (and this happened with the stock installed kernel too ISTR) is that on shutting down, I consistently get a panic, which after rebuilding my kernel with the debugging turned on, I have slightly more information: ... Uptime: 1m48s NMI ISA a0, EISA ff RAM parity error, likely hardware failure. Fatal trap 19: non-maskable interrupt trap while in kernel mode cpuid = 0; lapic.id = 00000000 instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc014cd64 stack pointer = 0x10:0xe11eac78 frame pointer = 0x10:0xe11eac84 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, IOPL = 0 current process = 1 (init) kernel: type 19 trap, code=0 Stopped at ahc_shutdown+0x24: jmp ahc_shutdown+0x29 db> trace ahc_shutdown(c3b0bc00,0,c03326cd,175,32) at ahc_shutdown+0x24 boot(0,0,c03326cd,af,e11ead40) at boot+0x6c0 reboot(c3b17720,e11ead10,c0345860,3fb,1) at reboot+0x46 syscall(2f,2f,2f,80a943a,bfbffdf8) at syscall+0x26e Xint0x80_syscall() at Xint0x80_syscall+0x1d --- syscall (55, FreeBSD ELF32, reboot), eip = 0x80507ab, esp = 0xbfbffc2c, ebp = 0xbfbffcf8 --- db> This also causes the Hardware LCD display on the front to display "E13F5 PCI SYSTEM", which I have to remove all power from the machine to clear, although the machine appears to still work with this message displayed. On advice of the message regarding RAM/hardware failure, I've run all of the Dell diagnostics to check things like the RAM, and they all pass with no problem. The machine has a 39160 fitted in one of the PCI-X slots and also has both an AIC7899 and AIC7890 onboard, the latter of which has a Quantum SDLT320 tape drive connected. I've tried removing the 39160 and this makes no difference. If I remove the ahc driver from my config and rebuild, I no longer get the panic, problem is I'd like to use the tape drive :-) I've included the output of "pciconf -v -l" below if that's any use, otherwise I'm a bit green on debugging FreeBSD so if there is any more information you want/need, please let me know how to get it. Cheers Matt -- "Accept anything. Then explain it your way."
