I have a Sony Vaio FX290.

I know that hanging at the root mount in not uncommon.  What is bizarre
is that my laptop was running -stable and a make world was done not too
long ago.  It never hung.  Then I crashed my system (due to my own
stupidity) and had to reinstall 4.5.  The iso disks would all hang at
the root mount.  Then I took a freshly cvsup'd source from my other
machine and installed it in the laptop after booting from a 4.1 iso. 
After makeworld it hung also at the root mount.

I was very fortunate to find in the list archives the magic commands
that I put into loader.conf:


hw.pcic.intr_path=1
hw.pcic.irq=0

Now it boots OK, but I still can't figure out why I didn't need this
before?  Rob.
