Starting it up from a power down it boots up fine. However, on a reboot it will pretend to reboot and blank screen and then show bios info, and then hang with a solid cursor. It's a very frustrating problem of course. I have had Linux on that box before and it did not have this problem. A Linux user once suggested it way the advance power management support or rather poor support in FreeBSD. Just to try, I commented out: #device apm0 at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # AdvPwrMngnt ...then recompiled the kernel and it didn't help. I have disabled advance power management in the bios and re-enabled it in all variations I can think of with and without that above in the kernel. Does anyone know how I can fix this with at least a work around? Thanks! Rachel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
