Hi,

I downloaded the 4.6-STABLE boot floppies, and tried to install
FreeBSD on my new Winbook N3 laptop.  The specs for the laptop are at:

http://www.winbookcorp.com/support/n3/n3_support.html

The bios is:

PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.0
Copyright 1985-2000 Phoenix Technologies Ltd.
All Rights Reserved
Keyboard BIOS Rev 180A.ROM
30N3/CY20 BIOS(NB:VIA8603,SB:VIA686B) V1.80A


When I try to boot, the boot screen hangs at:
"Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0c"

This problem seems to be identical to PR 30860:
http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=30860

One of the solutions in that PR was to set in my BIOS
"Assign IRQ to USB".  Unfortunately, my Phoenix BIOS for the Winbook
does not have this option.  Is there any way to debug this?

Just for fun I downloaded the FreeBSD 5.0-DP1 boot floppies, and I
did NOT have this problem, so it seems to be a problem in the 4.6-STABLE
boot sequence.  I don't really want to run CURRENT at this time.

Anyone have any ideas how I can solve this problem with STABLE?

Thanks.

Here are some of the boot messages that I could see before they scrolled
off the screen:
