The following reply was made to PR kern/118842; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "David Naylor" <blackdragon@highveldmail.co.za> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/118842: Boot failure with apic enabled (FreeBSD 7) Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2007 09:53:55 +0200 Hi, The problem is worse with amd64 kernel. Same symtoms with apic enabled however with apic disabled the system is unable to find any hard drives (or DVD ROMS) and thus the work around for i386 does not work... The boot messages indicate that with apic disabled the kernel is unable to allocate IRQ's for ata[0-4] devices. Is this expected? Since ata0 is having the problems (ata[1-4] appear to 'work' fine except no devices are found, there are some) could a potential work around be moving the two hard drives to the 3rd and 4th SATA ports (they are currently on 1st and 2nd)? Have a good festive season David
