  Hi!
  
  I have FreeBSD 7.3-STABLE on Biostar 945GC-M4 motherboard.
  When I boot with custom kernel it fail to boot on ACPI. FreeBSD box
  do not respond to any key. But it successfully boots with button 2
  from boot menu (without acpi).
  
  Then I try to boot with GENERIC. Success! Ok, I try comment
  out one-by-one devices in GENERIC, rebuild and install kernel,
  and try to boot. My custom kernel boot fine until I comment
  out mpt device in kernel, but it successfully boots without
  acpi (button 2 on boot menu). I have no mpt devices in
  this box. When I insert device mpt back to the kernel it boots
  successfully.
  
  Why acpi depends on device mpt? Why this server do not boot without
  this device?
 
 How does it fail to boot in the non-mpt case?  Does it hang, does it panic?  
 If it hangs, can you break into DDB and capture the output of 'ps' and a 
 stack 
 trace?  (A serial console is probably useful for this.)

John, thank you very much for your answer.
Sorry for delay.

My freebsd box fails to boot after detecting CPU and memory. It
simply hang. I think this is too early to run ddb or somethig else.

Also, similar problem with this device I detect on two remote bsd
servers in production. After insert mpt device into kernel, that
servers begin boots fine.

Can you please produce _verbose_ dmesg for booting with acpi+mpt and no acpi, no
mpt?  And also, _verbose_ dmesg of acpi and !mpt.
You can capture the latter with serial console.
If you don't have it, try to get screenshots.
