Two or three months ago I tried to boot from FBSD 7.0-STABLE install CD , it
boots
but both 7.0-RELEASE and 7.1-BETA BTX loader gives me dump of some
characters
such as
00 12 12 00
12 12  00 00 etc..

all tests were made with i386 version of fbsd.
laptop is amd64 pavilion.

when booting ubuntu linux it also says something like PCI BUG found in the
first screen but then boots normally

you could trace the error by comparing 7.0 stable with 7.1 ( i386 ) FBSD
install iso images..
