I don't get this message, and besides since ACPI is not planned to be present I wouldn't be concerned if I did see such a message. Does the system boot anyway? When during the boot process do you see this message? What are you booting? Booting build 81 shows in dmesg "ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP", and "ACPI: Interpreter disabled." This is expected. > I press F1 and it has only images. This seems normal. F1 enters the image menu, then you use left and right arrow keys to select an image. The last image, on my board, gives a LinuxBIOS shell prompt. > I am not sure that is feature or bug.

Perhaps the source code would show what it is capable of, or perhaps we need to wait for documentation on what configuration options are available. Is there any reason you need to configure devices? Why shouldn't Linux be able to do this configuration? We control the BIOS, there seems no justification for device configuration functionality. > If so, after I power-off, is thare any way to bring back the old BIOS. Perhaps. I've not tested it, and I'm not willing to. You should be able to boot from the same filesystem you did the olpcflash commands on. But why would you need to do this at all? Why do you need ACPI? -- James Cameron mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://quozl.netrek.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.laptop.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
