Hang after soft reboot.

2003-02-20 Thread David
Hi, On a fresh, clean install of 4.7-RELEASE my (old) machine consistently hangs while booting after soft reboot. Powering down and back up again, or pressing the reset button will boot the machine, but if it is rebooted by the OS then it hangs after detecting the isa bus "isa0: on motherboard".

Disabling uhci at boot-time
