Laptop details : HP Pavilion dv2000 (dv2422ca)
Specifications (taken from http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=au&docname=c01070158&dlc=en&l c=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_AUEN ) : Product Name: dv2422ca Product Number: GM039UA#ABC / GM039UA#ABL Microprocessor: 1.8 GHz AMD Turion T 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-56 Microprocessor Cache: 512KB+512KB L2 Cache Memory: 2048 MB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) I tried to boot from 7.0-release-AMD64, 7.0-release-i386 and 6.2-release-i386 install disks (about to try 6.3-release-amd64). I could not successfully boot up the computer using the install disks mentioned. Sometimes there would be a memory dump (scrolling infinitely), sometimes I would get the following message(s) : elf_32_lookup_symbol : corrupt symbol table loading required module 'pci' ACPI autoload failed - no such file or directory \ int=00000006 err=00000000 efl=00010002 eip=00000003 eax=00449130 ebx=00000000 ecx=004f010f edx=0003fa40 esi=00000000 edi=00000000 ebp=00000000 esp=000928b0 cs=0008 ds=0010 es=0010 fs=0010 gs=0010 ss=0010 cs:eip= f0 53 ff 00 f0 c3 e2 00-f0 53 ff 00 f0 53 ff 00 f0 54 ff 00 f0 8a a8 00-f0 53 ff 00 f0 a5 fe 00 ss:esp= 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00-00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00-00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 BTX halted There is no significant BIOS option in this laptop that I can think of to at least begin to trouble shoot this issue. Laptop works fine for other operating systems as far as I can tell. Initial documentation suggests that this laptop should work, however, I'd like to get some more insight from freebsd-stable before continuing. If any additional information is required, please let me know.
