I got a presario v2000 laptop with this hardware AMD64 turion 2800 unknown motherboard 512mb ddr ATi Xpress 200m chipset ATi Xpress 200m graphics (basically a x300 card) The machine has nothing on it atm, I initially tried PC-BSD which is FreeBSD7 then I tried with FreeBSD 7 AMD64 (PC-BSD is x86 atm) It halted at detecting the firewire ports. I tried without acpi (I think thatswhat it is, whatever you push 2 to disable at the boot loader) It went further to mounting something like md0. I've tried with verbose too, not much errors some stuff about a serial port i believe. Not sure where else to go with this, I've disabled other things like mtrr, I read that a guy got freebsd 6 to work by doing something like that, I couldn't find much info. Once I did that it halted at start_init /stand/sysinstall it did a few start_init's, thats the last one then she halted. I've got no clue why its halting at different areas depending on whats disabled. -- ~Chris Manns
