Hi,
I installed FreeBSD 8 in VMWARE and everything works just fine but the boot process.
The boot process is delayed for about 30 seconds or maybe even longer after the kernel output "acpi0: <INTEL 440BX> on motherboard". After 30+ seconds the boot process is continued with the messages
When I try to boot with ACPI disabled the root fs cannot be mounted because the ide controllers ata0 and ata1 failed to receive an irq (kernel message: Unable to allocate irq).
Does anyone know a workaround to avoid this delay?
