Hello,
I have a really clean base system - even pkg is not yet run anytime.
I plug an harddisk. Or I plug an usb hub.
I have noticed that my dedicated server hangs at boot. The leds of the ethernet network is off. SSH is down. And no idea what is doing the freebsd server.
I unplug the harddisk or the usb hub, and it boots, networking works and the server works.
This can be reproduced. And it is clear that USB is the issue.
A workaround is to plug afterwards the harddisk or usb hub, after starting (without USB), the usb hub, then all works fine.
But, the # reboot will result in an offline server, if usb is still plugged.
Note: /etc/fstab is untouched, i.e. default, and all system is just installed so... not easy what it could be.
Where to start to dig with this and find a possible fix?
Yours sincerely,
Spartrekus
