>Description:
I was never able to boot any FreeBSD 7.x release on my asus l3000d laptop.
The system freezes shortly after boot, with no diagnostic message,
sometimes just before user-space keyboard selection, sometimes while
navigating the menu.  Booting with ACPI disabled or in "safe mode"
doesn't help.

The core is an AMD athlon xp-m 2500+ on a SiS 740 chipset.  If the full
hw specification is needed, please provide instructions to get it in a
6.x environment.  FreeBSD up to 6.x always worked fine on this laptop.

Regards -- g.b.

>How-To-Repeat:
boot from the livefs or 1st install cd.
