Since acpi0 failed to probe, ACPI isn't used to route interrupts. However, the apic code expects ACPI to do that since it enumerated CPUs and I/O APICs. You are just going to have to disable ACPI for now. > acpi0: on motherboard > ACPI-1287: *** Error: Method execution failed [\\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.EC0_._REG] (Node 0xc29b4660), > AE_NOT_EXIST > acpi0: Could not initialise SystemIO handler: AE_NOT_EXIST > device_probe_and_attach: acpi0 attach returned 6 If you can get this fixed, then you can re-enable ACPI again. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/
