Annoying message during install
So I booted up the 4.4 CD, and starting from when it asks me (I)nstall, (U)pgrade or (S)hell, it keeps repeating "pckbcintr: no dev for slot 1" going down the screen randomly. Sometimes it stops, but other times it repeats for like 5-10 lines. But I can still move along with the installation just fine, nonetheless. It just distorts my typing vision because I'm typing something on one line, and suddenly it displays this message repeatedly a few times, and I forget if I made a space after a letter or not. But it still works, except this message is annoying and I don't know what it means.
Also, during the Network Configuration stage, I have to configure manually because I use wireless. So I can do "ifconfig ath0 up" and it works fine (my wireless card starts blinking) but I have WEP enabled and my SSID is set to invisible so it does not broadcoast publicly. So I did "ifconfig ath0 up mode 11g nwid myinvisiblessid nwkey 0xHexKeyHere" (The hex key is 26 characters or something). But it gives me a couple lines of error message, but I forgot to write it down so I'll have to try to install OpenBSD again (I needed internet to post this question so I switched OS on the computer). But I don't see any blinking lights on my wireless card like I did with just "ifconfig ath0 up". |

So for the second problem I tried it after I fully installed OpenBSD first. I logged in as root, and did startx and in the terminal that showed up in the X environment, I typed in "ifconfig ath0 up" just to test it. Everything froze immediately. I could not type anything, I could not move the mouse, and I could not switch the console/terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F2/F3,etc. I had to manually shut down by pressing the power button which I hate to do since it messes with the hard drive. I started again and this time I did not go into X, instead I stayed in the raw terminal that shows when you first boot it up and don't do anything. I logged on as root again and did "ifconfig ath0 up" as a test once more, and you know how usually when you type in a command, it kind of looks like this:
Code:
# ifconfig ath0 up # But both times I did the command, the lights in my wireless card started blinking (even though everything was frozen). Last edited by JohnHicks; 11th February 2009 at 12:55 AM. |

So I took a dmesg during the OpenBSD install, and also one after I installed. For some reason, the dmesg I took after the install, is in weird characters:

Can you try disabling apm?.. or can you try booting a 4.5-BETA snapshot kernel?
|
|
|||
What is apm? I'd prefer to use something stable, so I think I'll wait for the 4.5 release if no solutions work for me at this time
|

Your ramdisk-kernel dmesg tells me several things:
Support for your AR5413 chipset was added to OpenBSD in 2006. There have been no bug reports (or complaints on the misc@ mailing list) for the software supporting the chipset, and there have been no patches to the chipset driver in six months. -------------------------- APM = "Advanced Power Management" ACPI = "Advanced Configuration and Power Management" APM is an an older, and a better-followed standard by hardware manufacturers. It is used to manage power consumption. ACPI is newer, has significantly more capabilities and functionality, but has varying interpretations by hardware manufacturers.
To disable APM in the kernel: At the boot> prompt, type: boot> -c This will boot the /bsd kernel, but bring up the User Kernel Configurator before the kernel does much hardware probing. At the UKC> prompts, type: UKC> disable apm UKC> quit You should see a somewhat different dmesg, due to ACPI being used. Let us know if your keyboard controller problem, dmesg(8) output, or ifconfig behavior changes. If things change for the positive, you can make the change permanent by using the config(8) tool, e.g.: # config -euf /bsd UKC> quit

So I almost forgot I can still connect to the internet by direct line to my router which I did after I installed OpenBSD and I'm on it right now.
When I try any ifconfig ath0 command, it says "ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: Device not configured" every time. (ifconfig ath0 up, ifconfig ath0 nwid myssid nwkey 0xhexkey, etc.) I attached the dmesg because I don't know how to copy paste from the file. But this time dmesg > /mnt/dmesg command worked Last edited by JohnHicks; 11th February 2009 at 04:36 PM. |

The Cardbus/PCMCIA device isn't detected after you enable ACPI, this is indicated in the dmesg output.
Quote:
Can you try removing the card and inserting it again? not sure if it will pickup on such an event or not.. If this was one of my own systems, I'd take a look at the BIOS configuration. (Or update it, for that matter.) You can test a 4.5-BETA kernel, at least you would be able to determine if things have improved since the 4.4-RELEASE in November. As a side note, patience really is a virtue in the Unix work.. |
|
|||
Note; I have one more recommendation... try booting the bsd.mp kernel, at least in 4.4 it offers slightly different interrupt routing support. (APIC/ioapic)
So, download it from a mirror.. move it into /, ensure it's owned by root:wheel.. with the permissions 0644. # mv bsd.mp /bsd.mp # chown root:wheel /bsd.mp # chmod 0644 /bsd.mp The boot instructions were posted by jggimi above: boot> boot bsd.mp -c UKC> disable apm UKC> quit Hope it helps.

I'm using rl0 to connect to the internet right now on OpenBSD.
But wouldn't you know it, I unplugged my wireless card and put it back in, and I could not do anything! Everything was frozen once again. I'll try the bsd.mp suggestion right now. (bsd.mp from ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/i386) Okay that didn't work either Still same error message as before Last edited by JohnHicks; 11th February 2009 at 05:19 PM. |
|
|||
Can you try bsd.mp without disabling apm?.. or disabling it if you forgot.
Also, can you post the dmesg of both? If you're feeling brave, can you go into the BIOS configuration panel and look for an option similar to "Plug and Play OS?", set that to "No". |
|
|||
There's nothing in the BIOS like that, I'm afraid
But I'll reboot again and get the dmesg of when apm is left enabled (I'm on bsd.mp disabled right now, so I'm attaching the dmesg file |
|
|||
Here is the dmesg with apm left enabled (still boot into bsd.mp)
|
|
|||
Maybe I did something wrong...I followed the instructions BSDfan666 gave above
I downloaded bsd.mp from the mirror link I posted above (main one in Canada), put it into / (I just copied the command) and did the chown and chmod (once again just copy-pasted commands) then I rebooted and at boot> I typed in boot bsd.mp -c then in UKC> I did disable apm then quit like I did before. Then when it booted into it, I did dmesg > dmesgdis to paste the current dmesg into the file. |
|
||||
I believe you, but *something* is wrong.
As root, try issuing: # config -ef /bsd.mp This will display the top lines of the kernel, that we see in dmesg output, then drop into the UKC. Does it show GENERIC or GENERIC.MP? If the former, perhaps you grabbed the wrong remote file. If the latter, there's no obvious explanation. At the UKC> prompt, you can just type "quit". |
|
|||
# config -ef /bsd.mp
OpenBSD 4.4 (GENERIC.MP) #844: Tue Aug 12 17:24:39 MDT 2008 deraadt@i386.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sy...ile/GENERIC.MP Enter 'help' for information ukc> quit Kernel not modified |
|
||||
This confirms you have the correct file.
All I can think is that one of two things happened. Either you did not boot this particular OS, or you saved the dmesg under a different name. I'm going to guess the latter, but you can check: You can confirm you are running that kernel by watching the dmesg as it scrolls by (if you use -c, it will stop for UKC> and you can inspect it without having to be a speed reader), or, you can confirm it after logging in with: $ sysctl kern.version
