Eric, I've got a Sat Pro A10, 4.9 worked fine on it, but 5.X didn't without = changing a setting. Try shoving the following in your loader.rc.=20 [xenon:~]# cat /usr/remotesystems/cobalt/boot/loader.rc set hw.pci.enable_io_modes=3D"0" Disabling APCI had no effect for me, I'm not sure what the above actually does, but it worked for me. Worth a shot :). Kind regards, Peter. --=20 Peter Wood <peter@alastria.net> :: Tel +44 7974 799440 On Thu, 20 May 2004 18:56:35 +0930, you wrote: >Krill > >I have tried disbabling ACPI from both the loader and the Beastie menu >When I disable acpi from the loader and also set >hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range=3D"1" >I just get the spining /|-\ characters until its stops hung then it = reboots >after say a minute with no explaination of why etc > >Eric >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Kirill Bezzubets" <kirill@solaris.ru> >To: "Eric Parsonage" <eric@eparsonage.com> >Cc: <orm.hager@sercon.de>; <freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org> >Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 4:31 PM >Subject: Re: Antwort: HELP FBSD WONT BOOT Toshiba Satelite A30 > > >> On Thu, May 20, 2004 at 07:52:29AM +0930, Eric Parsonage wrote: >> >> > To All those that replied thanks. >> > >> > Some have asked if I have used a boot manager.
