Boot hang: Sony VAIO

Hi all,

I’m trying to upgrade an old Sony VAIO laptop from 10.1 to -CURRENT. Everything seemed to work well with 10.1, but on -CURRENT I get no further in the boot than:

```
ACPI: No DMAR table found
Event timer “LAPIC” quality 600
ACPI APIC Table: <Sony VAIO>
```

If I disable ACPI, I get:

```
APIC: Could not find any APICS.
panic: running without device atpic requires a local APIC
```

What’s changed between 10 and 11, ACPI-wise? Any thoughts on what I might be able to do (besides stay on 10)?

Thanks,

Jon
