Hello, I'm using 5.2 CURRENT as of March 6. I've been using CURRENT on this box for a year or so now, and the behavior described below has occurred since I installed the Soyo device. I have a Soyo 6-in-one memory card reader/writer that connects to a USB port on my computer. When this device is plugged in, the system will not boot but halts with a BTX error. If I hit spaces before the system tries to boot FreeBSD, then I get a prompt and I can type "/boot/loader" at the prompt and the system will boot and everything will work. The 6-in-one reader works fine once the system is booted. Seems like a stray interrupt problem that gets masked when I generate interrupts by hitting space on the keyboard. (Does this sound right or is it total nonsense???) Any suggestions as to how I can deal with this? -- Fred Gilham gilham@csl.sri.com 99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name. -- Steve Wright
