Hi, I have a Sony VAIO PCG-GR250P and I had the exact same problem. The hw.pcic.intr_path="1" and hw.pcic.irq="0" setings didn't work for me. My solution was to use the 4.3 iso image, which worked find except it didn't recoginize my built-in Intel Pro 100 VE NIC. So, I used a 16-bit Linksys PCMCIA NIC with the 4.3 ISO, then cvsup'ed to 4.4-STABLE. At that point the boot problem went away AND my Intel NIC was recognized. HTH, Sean. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Roger Sent: Friday, December 14, 2001 2:09 AM To: freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Sony PCG-R505JLK Good morning, it is 05:00 am here... I just recevied my new Sony Laptop, but I'm stuck in the installation process. I tried the 4.4 iso image, even the RH 7.2 and the Solaris Intel CD's. I purchased this laptop because, I used and am still using a Z505 without a glitch (only the memory stick had to be disabled).
