I've recently acquired a new laptop (Acer Aspire 1524) with Athlon 64 cpu in it, so I try to install FreeBSD for AMD64 (the 5.3 version) on it. The booting process stops when the screen for boot options, i.e. Boot FreeBSD, Boot FreeBSD with ACPI disabled, etc... appears. Whatever boot option I choose the system freezes immediately (only a slash in bottom left corner appears and nothing else) and I have to reboot it. Any idea? TIA Sergio. P.S. I've read some threads about a similar problem, and even if my problem is different, I've tried to apply a patch found in them, but nothing changes.
