hang on reboot - cpu_reset

Post by fatsailor »

This was covered in the linux side under this topic
http://www.fit-pc2.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=301

FreeBSD 8.1 suffers the same problem. Unfortunately, the solution for Linux (placing reboot=b in the grub config) does not work with FreeBSD since it doesn't use grub nor does it have a reboot option with bootflags.

Given this problem happens under both Linux and FreeBSD - I suspect the BIOS. Has any of the dev's reproduced this? Status?

Actually, for Linux users, the lastest kernels are now patched. We don't need "reboot=b" option anymore.
I suspect the BIOS. Has any of the dev's reproduced this? Status?
About the BIOS, the only thing Linux users have got to do is setting "Processor Full Speed" to "GV3 Only" in the BIOS.
But it's for another issue : http://www.fit-pc2.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=361
I give this info even if not related because this other issue might also bother ... Otherwise ... No clue for *BSD. Sorry :cry:
