    Subject: 5.1 Kernel panic on install

    Hi Guys,

    I am trying to install FreeBSD 5.1 from CD on a Toshiba Tecra 8200 Laptop.
    No matter what mode I start the install in, it results in a kernel panic.
    The laptop has an in built Intel NIC and an inbuilt Wireless NIC as well. As
    you can see from the output below it always happens after the Wi-Fi NIC has
    been detected. I think it has something to do with the way the interupts are
    being re-routed, but I do not know how to get around it as this is my first
    'adventure' with FreeBSD.

    Here is the last output I can see on screen before the kernal panic:

    =====================================================================
    Wi0: Lucent Firmware: Station (6.14.1)
    Wi0: supported rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5 Mbps 11Mbps

    Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
    fault virtual address = 0xdbbd8000
    fault code = supervisor read, page not present
    Instruction pointer = 0x8 : 0xc025fe25
    Stack pointer = 0x10 : 0xd6959964
    Frame pointer = 0x10 : 0xd6959b7c
    Code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
                                    = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
    Processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
    Current process = 25 (cbb1)
    Trap number = 12
    Panic: page fault
    ======================================================================

    I have looked through the FreeBSD handbook, but I just do not have enough
    experience with FreeBSD to make sense of it. Can anyone give any help?

    Thanks

    Kevin
