Open BSD 4.4 boot up issue
I have installed openbsd 4.4 on my laptop and after reboot the system is not booting up. It gets stuck at a line which reads something like "recoh firewire 6 not configured 0 ".
How do i rectifiy this issue. |

That message you see is just the last line of kernel messages before it hangs during boot. Your problem has nothing to do with firewire, which is unsupported (and ignored) hardware.
The easiest way to find the root cause is to do a verbose kernel boot. Step 1: At the boot> prompt, type "boot -c" Step 2: At the first UKC> prompt, type "verbose" Step 3: At the second UKC> prompt, type "quit" Step 4: See if there are any messages produced after the firewire probe has ended. This should point to the device causing the hang. It can be disabled at the UKC> prompt if necessary. For more detail, see the boot_config(8) man page. |

I i disable sdhc it boots file, how can I disable sdhc for ever and what is tis purpose
|
|

The man page for sdhc(4) indicates it is the host controller for SD memory devices.
To disable it permanently after disabling it during boot -c at the UKC> prompt, issue: # cp -p /bsd /bsd.orig # config -euf /bsd Please read the config(8) man page prior to executing the command, so you understand the impact. |

If i disable it at boot time will i be able to reload this module when the system is up and i want to use my sd card reader. One more thing to enable softupdate i have added in the end softdep to the options line of my / and /home. How do i check that softdep is working.
