Hi. I am attempting to install freebsd 5.4 on a toshiba satelite a25 laptop, in a dual boot scenario with windows xp pro. I have the media on 3 cds: one boot only, cd 1, and cd 2. When i boot from the bsd cd, i get to the devil screen and select normal startup. It then loads up some things and gets to this, where it just hangs and i can hear the cd stop in the drive: ata0: channel #0 on atapci0. I was instructed to look at the handbook, but that did not seem to get me anywhere. I just updated my chipset, but my bios is a good two years old. After looking at the handbook it seems like this is indeed an acpi issue, any help is greatly appreciated! james ---------- James Heck
