I downloaded the 5.3 bootonly disc this morning and was unable to boot. I had the same problem that I experienced with the 5.3-RC2 and also when I did a buildworld from 5.2.1. The kernel appears to be booting fine until it gets to a certain point where it will stop. The boot process stops right after listing my hdds or, if my orinoco card is in, after failing to initialize my wireless nic (which happens right after the hdd listing). The system is not locked as I still receive a message about not being ready to suspend from the acpi module when I push the power button on my tower. Also, it doesn't matter which boot option I use; the boot stops at the same place every time. Can anybody give me any pointers on how to go about diagnosing the problem here? Thanks, Nick
