Peter I am afraid that did not work when i tried it in the loader !!!! I have heard RH loonix works in these machines but how would I live without the ports collection ?

Try shoving the following in your loader.rc. [xenon:~]# cat /usr/remotesystems/cobalt/boot/loader.rc set hw.pci.enable_io_modes="0" Disabling APCI had no effect for me, I'm not sure what the above actually does, but it worked for me. Worth a shot :).
