It seems that Freebsd 6.1 (and likely others
versions as well) will hang when booted on a
machine with no parallel port. Since many newer
MBs are leaving the PP off due to lack of
interest, it might be a good idea to fix this,
since the point of a GENERIC kernel is that its a
superset of what's needed in most cases.
