All the above was tried with and without options PNPBIOS Every time it booted with this: pcm0: <ESS Technology Maestro-2E> irq 9 at device 13.0 on pci0 pcm0: unable to register space device_probe_and_attach: pcm0 attach returned 6 If PnP is disabled in the BIOS it just stalls at: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a I even tried installing it all over with PnP diabled in the BIOS, then it stalled right where it says something like: I've found a PCMCIA device, do you want to use this as installation media? [Yes] [No] And I could get no further. Please do get it fixed since I want to run FreeBSD, of all OS'es FreeBSD was the best, and Slackware the second best ;) But in this case Slackware prewailed. >How-To-Repeat: I guess a Fujitsu/Siemens Lifebook E-6540 would be a good start, disable PnP in the BIOS and you'll get no further. >Fix: If you can live without soundcard, wich I guess most Home WorkStations can't, you could just enable PnP in BIOS and forget the soundcard, or you could install Slackware ;) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
