Hello, I currently try to install FreeBSD 5.3-BETA3 on a LH3000. Booting from CD does work with ACPI disabled. If enabled, this is what I get (handcopied from screen, typos are my own): -------------------------------------------------------------------- ACPI APIC Table: <PTLTD APIC > cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID:0 cpu1 (AP): APIC ID:1 acpi0: <PTLTD HWPC207> on motherboard ACPI-0347: *** Error: During resolve, Unknown Reference opcode 2d (AE_NOT_CONFIGURED) in 0xc3bf12c0 ACPI-1303: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.PCIO.ISA_.LINK] (Node 0xc3b04c60), AE_AML_INTERNAL ACPI-1303: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.INIT] (Node 0xc3aa94a0), AE_AML_INTERNAL ACPI-1303: *** Error: Method execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0._INI] (Node 0xc3aa9520), AE_AML_INTERNAL acpi0: Power Button (fixed) can't fetch resources for \_SB_.PCI0.ISO_.SIO_.LPT_ - AE_AML_INVALID_RESOURCE_TYPE ACPI link \_SB_PCI0.ISA_.LNKU has invalid irq 9, ignoring amrd0: <LSILogic MegaRaid logical drive> on amr0 amrd1: <LSILogic ...> Interrupt Storm detected on "irq5: ohci0" -------------------------------------------------------------------- Then the system hangs. I omitted some other 'normal looking' entries. If anything else is needed, please let me know. Booting without APCI from CD does work, installing FreeBSD also. Booting from harddisk does not work. After POST the screen goes blank and displays a single '-'. Is it possible that the BIOS is loading the initial loader which then can't access the correct drive through BIOS (eg booting from drive 1 instead of 0 via bios, and the loader then tries to access drive 0)? It is possible to boot from CD, then selecting root device disk1s1a via loader and start system from harddisk. (with APCI disabled) All ideas, suggestions, hints, help welcome.

Disabling APIC at the loader prompt: set hint.apic.0.disabled="1" at the loader prompt Also, you should post to and read the freebsd-current list for any issues with FreeBSD 5-3-BETA's.

Upgrade the BIOS for your motherboardUmm - afaik that is the latest version available.> 2. Disabling APIC at the loader prompt:> set hint.apic.0.disabled="1" at the loader promptnot possible, as I won't get that far. As I wrote, booting from disk1s1a does not work. I do not get anything except a blank screen with the character "_" (*). I do not even get a message that there was no system to boot, so the BIOS seems to recognize at least the bootability of the installation. => I don't even get a boot prompt. The only thing that does work then is ctrl-alt-del <sigh> With booting from CD I can then load and start everything from disk1s1a via the loader - that is no problem (this includes disabling apic, as I wrote).> Also, you should post to and read the freebsd-current list for any > issues with FreeBSD 5-3-BETA's.I thought FreeBSD 6 is CURRENT, so with 5.3 being nearly STABLE... Regards, Holger Kipp (*) I falsely stated in my first mail that this is '-'.
