This looks like the problem I have with 5.4-STABLE after a kernel change on 9/5/2005 to /usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c. The sysclt paramater "hw.pci.enable_io_modes" is supposed to allow PCs with "lazy" BIOSes to boot, but this setting had no effect on my 8100. If your problem is the same as mine then I'm not sure what, if anything, you can do to get 6.X to boot. In my case I can bootstrap from 5.X to 6.X, assuming I figure out how to kludge my way around the 8100 BIOS problem on 6.X. My original message had "Toshiba 8100 Fix" at the beginning of the subject line. There was related material with "changes breaks IDE boot" in the subject line, also. Mike Squires
