Does it work at all with ACPI? I don't follow you there. With ACPI it works just fine, exactly as it worked before without ACPI with 5.1-Release. I just wanted to say there are no disk errors/warnings at all.

Hm, ATAng went in since 5.1-R, so I wonder if it is having issues reading from the disk then. How long have you let it sit trying to start init? Does it give random disk errors? I let it try to start for about an hour three or four times... It just sits and does not show anything at all. If booted with ACPI there are no disk errors. -- Doug White| FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org ___ _ Get MSN 8 and help protect your children with advanced parental controls. http://join.msn.com/?page=features/parental ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

That sounds like your hints file is missing the required syscons entries. Did you just copy GENERIC.hints to /boot/device.hints? Yes, it's there. It looks like it was installed while installing 5.1-Release. It's the same file as GENERIC.hints. device.hints got loaded and I can see in kenv output same hint entries as in device.hints. -- Doug White| FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org ___ _ MSN 8: Get 6 months for $9.95/month. http://join.msn.com/?page=dept/dialup ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Compaq desktop does not work without ACPI
I upgraded old Compaq Despro EP from 5.1-Release to Current as of Aug 27th (cvsupped) and last line I see after boot is "Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a". The box just can't go past this point. boot -v gives one more line "start_init: trying /sbin/init". It happened with both generic and myself configured kernels. Surprisingly if I boot with ACPI turned on it goes through and works properly then. So quick fix is to enable ACPI in /boot/loader.conf but I think it's a bug anyway and if somebody wants to tackle the problem I can give more info and help in debugging.
