Subject:   Problems building GENERIC with DP2 on ThinkPad 600E
Message-ID:  <20021205174158.F36D45D04@ptavv.es.net>

I have been trying to install DP2 on my old ThinkPad 600E. It almost
works, but I can't build a new kernel.  I'd like to build a custom kernel,
but don't seem to be able to do so.

The system has a 366 Mhz PII, and the kernel is compiled with
-mcpu=pentiumpro.  I have no /etc/make.conf at this time.
Disturbingly, if I try to boot a kernel built with only "cpu
I686_CPU", I get a message at boot time telling me that the system is
not a 686. ???

When it boots GENERIC, it claims:
CPU: Pentium II/Pentium II Xeon/Celeron (363.96-MHz 686-class CPU)
I have always built FreeBSD on this system for a 686.

When boot the new kernel it seems to be OK for a few seconds, but any
attempt to login produces a crash:
Fatal trap 12: page fault in kernel mode
fault virtual address   = 0x3f6
fault code              = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer     = 0x8:0xc067ffc0
stack pointer           = 0x10:0xcsc13bec
frame pointer           = 0x10:0xcsc13bec
code segment            = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
                        = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags        = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process         = 22 (acpi_thermal)
kernel: type 12 trap code=0
stopped at      AcpiNsMapHandleToNode+0x20:     cmpb    $0xa,0(%edx)

Shortly prior to the crash, I get:
    ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR
    ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR
    ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR
    ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR

At various points in the boot I get the following (from the top):
[...]
Timecounter "ACPI_safe" frequency 3579545 Hz
    ACPI-0351: *** Error: Could not install PciConfig handler for
PCI0, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS
[...]
ad0: 11509MB <IBM-DARA-212000) [24944/15/63] at ata0-master UDMA33
    ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR
    ACPI-0432: *** Error: Handler for [EmbeddedControl] returned AE_ERROR
[...]

Any ideas on how to handle this?

I have no network connection to this system as there seems to be a
bug in PCCARD support on DP2 on ThinkPad 600 class systems.
