Well, some testing with my latest STABLE source update (Fri, Apr 7) exhibits the same problems. I can boot the kernel and mount root OK with or without ACPI enabled (via the loader tunable hint.acpi.0.disabled), but not without atpic. I can even boot OK without "device acpi" compiled into the kernel explicitly (and with no acpi module, either, of course, as this doesn't get built under amd64), but without atpic and the associated ACPI bits it pulls in, it's a definite show-stopper. Another interesting side effect I've noticed is that without acpi, the built-in nVidia sound chip (with the snd_ich driver compiled in) is not recognized either. -- Conrad J.
