This appears to have started after Warner did the "pcic pci attachments merged from current" (Wed Aug 15 14:37:59 2001) but I cannot be sure. When I reboot (and I think halt and press key for reboot) the system shuts down normally but as it comes back up the BIOS prints something like: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phoenix Bios 4.0 Release 6.0 Copyright 1985-1998 Phoenix Technolgies Ltd All rights reserved Inspiron 3500 A400GT BIOS Rev A11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- then it hangs. Normally the next thing in a warm reboot is something about "Mouse initialized" but it does not get to there. If I remove both cards then the reboot works normally. So I assume that ejecting cards does something to controller that reboot/halt does not and leaves them in a strange state. >How-To-Repeat: Type reboot (or halt then press a key) with a pcmcia card inserted. >Fix: Eject cards before rebooting :-( >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
