mountroot prompt after hint.apic.0.disabled=1
Don't know if that loader.conf change affected this server, I disabled APIC in loader.conf after finding it may be responsible for a slow clock on this VMware guest FreeBSD install. I rebooted for the changes to take affect and it goes now to a mountroot prompt, can't seem to load the root partition. I type ? at the prompt and it does not list anything after 'List of GEOM managed disk devices'. Can anyone suggest how I can fix this problem? Thanks, Robert ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

hint.apic.0.disabled
Hi, It seems that there is a conflict in manual pages. Or I am missing something. In manual page of loader.conf it is stated to add hint.apic.0.disabled=1 to disable acpi totally. But also in device.hints manual page it is stated to add hint.apic.0.disabled=1 line to disable acpi. Which one is the true one? To add to device.hints or loader.conf file.

You seem to be confusing them. loader.conf(5) doesn't mention either one on my 5-STABLE system. The example in device.hints is for acpi. But there is considerably more information about acpi in the acpi(4) man page, with a lot of loader.conf tunables you can set regarding acpi. One of them will disable it completely, but the syntax is different than you would use in device.hints. Also note that there is a whole chapter on Using and Debugging FreeBSD ACPI in the FreeBSD Handbook. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: hint.apic.0.disabled
Sorry for that. I have missed it. Should be more careful before emailing to a mailing list ;) I also mixed loader.conf manual page with acpi manual page.
