acpica_init is called several times, but only the first call will cause an initialization; either this succeeds or fails, but subsequent calls are effectively ignored. Note that acpica is loaded very early in boot; pci_autoconfig uses it, so a hang during PCI initialiazation may appear to be related to loading acpica. > If a hang occurs, just note the last instruction executed. > > If you don't like to play in the debugger, use the procedure described by > Doug but add the v option (-kvd).

See: http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/danasblog?entry=configuring_solaris_acpi_at_boot acpi-user-options=0x2 will prevent the ACPI CA subsystem from attempting to initialize in acpica_init: 357 /* 358 * Make sure user options are processed, 359 * then fail to initialize if ACPI CA has been 360 * disabled 361 */ 362 acpica_process_user_options(); 363 if (!acpica_enable) 364 return (AE_ERROR); (from http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/on/usr/src/uts/i86pc/io/acpica/acpica.c) However, did I miss something? Did Dmitry already attempt booting with acpi-user-options=0x2 and the hang still occurs?
