I had encountered same thing with Toshiba Libretto 60, running 2.2.7-RELEASE w/PAO. To make it boot, I did: * remove the battery (AC line also). * remove the hard disk from the PC. * then put the battery and hard disk back again. I don't know why it made my PC boot, nor will it work with your PC. And I have not encounterd this problem for months, but I also have no idea why it no more happens. ---- Hiroo Ono To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
