Hello!
I have an old Dell Latitude C800 laptop (with Pentium3 CPU in it).
FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE was running fine on it, but I decided to update the
machine to 9.1-STABLE.
Well, neither my own custom kernel, nor even the official 9.1-RELEASE
CD1 would boot... In both cases the boot process runs up to detecting
uhub0, then either hangs forever or shuts off after a short while.
Again, I thought I screwed-up the build, but the official CD would not
boot either, so here I am.
Flipping through the old CDs I have, the 7.3 hangs at boot similarly
(after reporting loading the memory image and warning me about
"dangerously low battery"). The 3.2-STABLE (September 1999) boots fine
-- and goes into sysinstall.
Freesbie-2.0.1 (which is based on FreeBSD-6.2) booted too.
What happened between 6.x and 7.x? Any ideas? Thanks!

I have had a Fujitsu LifeBook which I only could use with 7.x out for the same reason. Erich

Setting set hint.ichss.0.disabled=1 on the loader prompt allows me to boot -- both my own kernel as well as the 9.1-RELEASE from CD. Solved... Annoying beyond belief, but solved. Now, if only I could figure out, why my network card (3COM's 3C556 Mini PCI) is not seen by the 9.1... It was working perfectly fine with 6.3 -- and still works with the FreeSBIE-2.0.1 -mi
