I'm not sure if this should go to questions, current or mobile, but have
often heard that if you're not sure, start with questions.

Firstly, I should state that I don't know enough about the O/S to really
be playing with CURRENT--I tried it recently on a whim, and it worked
without much trouble, so I kept it (on a fairly vanilla hardware tower).

Recently, I installed 4.7 on a Toshiba Satellite 1800-S207 without
problem. I then decided to see if I could get the 5.0-DR 2 on it. I put
in the cd and it hung on

agp0: <Ali Generic host to PCI bridge> mem 0xf00000000-0xf3ffffff at
device 0.0 on pci0

The few lines before it---

\_SB_.PCI0.FNC0.LNKA irq 11: [ 3 4 5 7 10 11] low,level,sharable 0.17.0
(then a few repeats with different numbers at the end--in sequence
0.17.1
018.0
0.16.0
0.16.1
0.12.0
0.6.0
0.2.0
pci0: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib0

(Then the line where it hangs).

When I saw 5.0 was up to RC, I also tried upgrading from the 4.7 install.
make buildworld etc went fine, but when I rebooted after installing the
kernel, I had the same error that I had when trying to boot the machine
from the DR2 CD.


Searching deja I didn't find anything exactly resembling my problem, but
saw something similar from May. One suggestion had been to disable PCI
BIOS calls with set machdep.bios.pci=disable.  I tried that and it went
past the agp0 hang but then hung at

usb0: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support.  

The few lines before the hang are

pci1: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib1
pci1: <display, VGA> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)
ohci0: <AcerLabs M5237 (Aladdin-V) USB controller> mem
0xf7eff000-0xf7efffff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci0

I repeat, I don't know enough about the O/S to really play with CURRENT
and am only posting this since 5.0 is up to RC status.  I apologize if
I'm leaving out necessary information, or am supplying too much
unecessary information.
