OK, your original email mentioned an "error" when you tried disabling ACPI. It was not apparent that this worked around the problem. > when i do boot with ACPI, then it waits forever at those 2 timecounter=20 > lines..thats all..i can wait half an hour, and it just stays there..i=20 > really dunno why > thanks for helping btw Your machine may have a buggy ACPI implementation, or FreeBSD's ACPI support might be buggy with respect to your hardware. You should be able to obtain more information using the ACPI_DEBUG kernel config option (i.e. build a custom kernel), but exactly what to try and how to interpret it will require the services of an ACPI guru. Try asking your question again on acpi-jp@jp.freebsd.org if no-one else chimes in here (include full information so they don't have to back-and-forth again).
