Then the installer hung while I had an ATMEL USB development board plugged in, and also a MGE USB UPS.

Kathy- Please reply to the list, not me personally. Others may have the same problems, and can only benefit from an answer posted to the list.

We'll see if there's a difference - if so, then it lies with the iso image (did you check the md5sum before burning?). - Dimitri ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Dear Kat, I have recently install FreeBSD 5.2 (Release version) and ACPI is working just resonable good for me.

The kernel prints out copious messages to the screen when it's loading. If they go by too quickly to catch, you can press Scroll-Lock, and then either use the arrow keys or the PageUp/PageDown keys to navigate. It'll be quite a lot of typing, unless you're booting from a serial console and can copy-paste. - Dimitri ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

5.2 install hangs after menu
I am trying to install FreeBSD5.2 on an Athlon XP 2100+ machine with 512Mb ram and 20gb hdd (5gb partition for FreeBSD)MSI 745 Ultra motherboard. If I select any option on the menu, it tries to install and then hangs saying BTX halted. Even if I use option 3 (safe mode) If I select option 5 (verbose debug) it gives the following error message: ACPI autoload failed - no such file or directory. Any help is appreciated, as google has turned up nothing :( Regards, Kat. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
