X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 15 Oct 2004 14:42:47 -0000 A colleague "helped" me by powering-down my FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE server. This box doesn't boot with ACPI enabled (I think the hardware's too old), but now it goes through a bunch of devices and then comes up with: unknown: can't assign resources (port) Timecounters tick every 10.000 msec Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode .... And then tries to reboot. Over and over again. I seem to recall there was a known fix for this behaviour... Thanks in advance for any advice. --- Andy Holyer, Systems Administrator Hedgehog Broadband, 11 Marlborough Place Brighton BN1 1UB 08451 260895 x 241
