Hi,
my floppy disc drive does not work. I was ignoring this fact until today,
because I need to write something to a floppy. It's probably clashing with
something ACPI is claiming:
[during boot]
fdc0: cmd 3 failed at out byte 1 of 3
fdc0: cmd 3 failed at out byte 1 of 3
fdc0: cannot reserve I/O port range (6 ports)
[devinfo -u]
0x3f0-0x3f1 (acpi_sysresource0)
0x3f2-0x3f5 ----
0x3f6 (ata0)
0x3f7 (root0)
How can I get tell ACPI to free those two I/O ports? It works fine when I
disable ACPI, but disabling ACPI is not an option, because X does not
start without it. I need floppy under X.
I searched mailing list archives and exactly this same problem was
discussed back in summer 2001. I can't believe no solutions have been made
since then.
