If so, I can add this to the message.
I just removed the PCI card and found the very same values. This is probably normal since these values where stored when then pci card was inserted. Then I changed both values removing the "pci(0)" part and the system booted correctly. Later on, I halted the system, plugged in the pci card again, booted and looked at those values. They were still without the "pci(0)" part and the system booted correctly. So, I think something changed these values, maybe because I had this pci board installed, but the variables value doesn't require the "pci(0)", at least until you boot using the internal controller :-) Bye, Giuseppe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
