well, i figured out that if at the boot selection screen, if i choose
option 2 "boot with acpi enabled", i can then give 'shutdown -p
now' and
the system will then power off properly. easy enough...
but how do i set option 2 as my default boot selection? i dont see
anything about this in the handbook.
My experience has been that once you boot that way once it becomes
the default. Play around with it

i dont think thats the behavior im getting. when i hit 2 to boot:
athena# kldstat
Id Refs Address Size Name
1 3 0xc0400000 6ab778 kernel
2 1 0xc0aac000 59960 acpi.ko
athena# uname -a
FreeBSD athena.int.dfwlp.com 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #0: Fri Jun 16
20:48:52 CDT 2006
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ATHENA i386
and when i dont:
athena# kldstat
Id Refs Address Size Name
1 1 0xc0400000 6ab778 kernel
when i want to boot the acpi support, i hit 2. is that the proper way, or
is there some other way that resets this mode as default?
thanks,
jonathan
Last I read FreeBSD defaults ACPI off for systems that have "broken"
ACPI, and defaults on for systems that have "working" ACPI. If you're
sure your ACPI works without any problems add acpi_load="YES" to your
loader.conf. (that might not be the "correct" solution, but it should work).
HTH,
Micah
