I have a Toshiba Satellite2805-S302. It runs FreeBSD since version 3.x,
If I am not mistaking versions. I am running 5.3 Stable now, just moved
from 4.10.
To your question... it can be a checksum error in your recorded CD,
probably in the ISO image (did you check it before burning?). Try the
boot version (aprox. 20 Mbytes) or the floppies.
FreeBSD is solid rock of performance compared to Linux, but I recognise
(*at this moment*) for some users Linux is a better *Desktop* solution.
If you go for Linux , you may try Fedora Core 3 (latest).
Take care*

Hi,
I am tryin to install FreeBSD 5.3 on my Toshiba Satellite Laptop.
Every time I boot up from the cd it stops loading at
pci0ACPI PCI bus on pcib0
I tryed everything in my bios.I even disable the wirwles card and the
mouse, unpluged evry extra and still stops.
I tryed boot with ACPI, ACPI disable, Safe Mode.
Same problem.
The same cd does boot correctly on my desktop.
Does anyone could give me Idea what am I doing wrong?
Or if this laptop is not supported.
I appreciate every help
Thank you
Laszlo
