Thread: openbsd on root-server?




openbsd on root-server?

This is the same like the wiki.bsd-crew Howto (Dettus) from
my initial
mail. I tried 3 different Howtos (including the
depenguinator) and lots
of ideas i had, all with the same result: "Booting
from Disk..." and
then nothing more. I'm quite sure that the kernel does not
boot and some
posts i found confirm this, as Strato appears to have new
Systems which
seem to have a Bios bug (but that's still unconfirmed, i'm
waiting for a
reply from the Strato technicians)

Or does anybody here have OpenBSD(3.5||3.8) /
FreeBSD(5.2||5.4) running
on this hardware?

Greets, Chris

PS. Doing the same steps (from each Howto) and run the image
inside a
Vmware works like a charm, so i'm quite sure i'm not
totally over sleep ;)
