Yes, please. GPT has no relation to ACPI, so it should not be affected by whether ACPI is loaded as a module or compiled into the kernel. I find it hard to believe that a GEOM class would be affected. But, there may be some freak interaction somewhere in the kernel that causes this. -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
