Summary: Doesn't boot on Mobile Celeron
Product: Base System Reporter: Bernhard Rosenkraenzer <bero>
Component: i386Assignee: freebsd-bugs (Nobody) <bugs>
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me

Description Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 1999-10-21 20:00:01 UTC 
FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT 19991012 and FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE 19991012 both fail to
boot on this machine.
The kernel hangs at installation before entering the config editor, right
after printing
Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz

The same CD works well on a K6-450 and a Dual PIII-450. Aside from the
Mobile Celeron CPU and maybe the odd BIOS, there's nothing unusual in this box.

Fix: 

no fix known at this time
How-To-Repeat: 
Install on a notebook with a Mobile Celeron CPU and SystemSoft MobilePRO BIOS

Does this problem still occur in newer versions of FreeBSD, 
such as 4.3-RELEASE?
