Your BIOS sucks. :-P Don't use ACPI because PCI interrupts >> aren't going to work otherwise. Does this system have an AGP slot?

We/I'll know more when I get home. acpu_cpu is not the same thing as CPUs listed in the MADT. If there is no MADT, then FreeBSD won't find any APICs and won't be able to trust ACPI PCI interrupt routing. In fact, ACPI will still be trying to route interrupts to the ATPICS, and not to the APICs if the MADT isn't found and used. -- John Baldwin <jhb_at_FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/Received on Thu Nov 20 2003 - 07:32:08 UTC
