The following reply was made to PR i386/51129; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Ted Mittelstaedt" <tedm@toybox.placo.com> To: "Emanuel Haupt" <haupt@outof.ch>, <freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org> Cc: Subject: RE: i386/51129: ACPI problem, booting from install cd fails Date: Sat, 10 May 2003 16:33:22 -0700 Did you say you could get the system installed by turning off acpi in /boot/loader.conf with set hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" If so, it may be that hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" is not being added to /boot/loader.conf by sysinstall. If that is the case then once the system is installed and you reboot it, interrupt the boot and put the set hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" a second time, then once the system has booted, hand edit /boot/loader.conf and add this. ACPI has been reported to be broken on other hardware, it appears to be like the other PC "standards" full of exceptions.home | help
