Bug 140715

Summary: [boot] Dell M600 Blade fails to boot 7.2+ 64 bit
Product: Base System Reporter: Cliff Spradlin <cliff.spradlin>
Component: amd64Assignee: freebsd-amd64 (Nobody) <amd64>
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me    
Priority: Normal    
Version: Unspecified   
Hardware: Any   
OS: Any   

Description Cliff Spradlin 2009-11-20 08:10:01 UTC 
When the kernel is loading, it hangs with the last message showing:

atrtc0: <AT realtime clock> port 0x70-0x7f irq 8 on acpi0

See screenshot at http://twitpic.com/q7gqj .

Seems to have started in 7, still present in 8.0 RC3.  i386 works, it's
just amd64 that fails.

How-To-Repeat: Boot up the installer for M600

add this hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" to /boot/device.hints
but it makes status on CMC to be blinking
anybody can solve this problem?

Is still an issue?
Can you provide screen captures from a verbose boot?
Will you be able to try CURRENT snapshot and break into DDB?

IMHO it would be nice to confirm whether the problem is solved in (e.g.) 9.0.
