You will probably need the ACPI module for this laptop to work.  Grab the 
'acpi.ko' file from another -current system and put it on the second 
floppy.  It ought to load automatically; if not, "load acpi" at the 
loader prompt will DTRT.

The confusing 1.0 vs. 0.00 message is probably just a glitch in Warner's 
code.
