Problem installing OpenBSD. reddit / BSD ---------------------------------------------------------------------- IDF31 · 2019-01-05 19:24 Hello! I have a problem installing BSD. I flash the install64.fs file on my usb stick, then the I reboot, then the installer boots only to show me the error "make\_pci\_tag" and then panics and shuts down. What can I do? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- lebean · 2019-01-05 19:58 You don't mention what you're installing on, is it something you're using a serial console with, perhaps? I forgot about "stty com0 115200" and "set tty com0" at the boot prompt while I was doing a recent install via serial, and it would panic and boot loop until I had my forehead-to-desk realization. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- IDF31 · 2019-01-05 19:59 I'm installing on a Dell Inspiron 15 3558 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- poshpotdllr · 2019-01-05 21:06 how the hell is israel supposed to survive if the IDF cant even install openbsd? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- IDF31 · 2019-01-05 21:06 sshhh ---------------------------------------------------------------------- poshpotdllr · 2019-01-05 21:12 ssh heil hitler? is this a nazi joke? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TotesMessenger · 2019-01-05 22:52 I'm a bot, *bleep*, *bloop*.

It looks like your Dell Inspiron 15 3558 will have a recent Intel CPU, so you should be using the [amd64](https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.4/amd64/install64.fs) (x86 64-bit) install image. I ask because it is fairly common for new people to try to install with the i386 image (x86 32-bit) on modern machines, and this often doesn't work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- IDF31 · 2019-01-24 21:22 I use the install64.fs file which I suppose it's amd64
