Hi Folks,
I'm a web developer and run a FreeBSD web server out of my basement for testing purposes. Recently I moved and took the server along for the ride. When I power up the machine it seems to randomly restart. I can see the output as the system loads up then suddenly it will click off and restart. From what I can tell it's usually around driver loads, but the last thing I see is not consistent.
I've tried booting into safe mode, single user more, and whatever other options are available. It took quite a while to get the software setup on this machine so I'd like to try to save it if possible.
I'm open to any suggestions on how to bring back the box to life. I suppose a good first step would be loading up a cd boot distro and viewing the contents of /var/run/dmesg.boot?
