I posted this to questions as I didn't realise there was a mobile list. So I will just copy paste the same message I guess :o) ----- Hello All, I have just just aquired the laptop in the title and have tried FreeSBIE (1.0?) on it, the one based on 5.2.1-R. It fails to boot normally, the only option that appears to half work is safe mode otherwise it'll hang at some IP thing: "IPsec: Initialized Security Association Processing.". With safe mode, it is able to boot providing at the Init local packages bit I press ctrl+c (otherwise it panics... more on that later :o) Right now I have got it running and it'll start X and everything fine, I am quite chuffed. However in dmesg I just noticed something the panic may be related too: agp0: <Ali Generic host to PCI bridge> mem 0xe0000000-0xe3fffff at device 0.0 on pci0 agp0: bad initial aperture size, disabling device_probe_and_attach: agp0 attach returned 6 I am guessing this is broken hardware? Anyway, in safe mode the panic occurs (whenever I load any kernel module by the looks of it) is: (be warned, this probably isn't really all that helpful but I am waiting for a hard disk to arrive... then I may be able to build a debug kernel if it's needed?) agp0: <Ali Generic host to PCI bridge> mem 0xe0000000-0xe3ffffff at device 0.0 on pci0 panic: resource_list_alloc: resource entry is busy I tried just booting a normal earlier 5.1-R CD which gave a different panic along the lines of: contigmalloc0: size must not be 0 Any help would be much appreciated, i'd like to try and use FreeBSD on this laptop if at all possible :o)
