The notebook in question is a circa-2002 IBM Thinkpad A31p (of the "workstation replacement" genre of the day). If you're curious, here's more info on it: http://www.tomsguide.com/us/ibm-thinkpad-a31p,review-42.html The Atheros WiFi is a SMC PC-Card adapter. I can unplug it to see if it has any effect on the issue. I'll do that later today when the compiling finishes. :) [snip] |I will keep you posted, in the meantime you can try and | boot your pc from 271146, it works for me. Once I figure out how to do that, I'll give it a try. :) Meanwhile, make buildkernel with 270327 should finish compiling in a few hours.... Thanks. Mike.
