Bug 35950

Unable to install from floppies or bootable CD images from 5.0-2002031x-CURRENT.
Observed on both an Asus (VIA) MB and a Sony VAIO laptop.

How-To-Repeat: Create boot floppies or CD from snapshot. Boot, note that BTX loader exits
before booting kernel.

Have tried manually loading acpi.ko (from bin distrubition), as well as 
disabling acpi_load and/or acpi from the 'OK' prompt.

I have gotten today's snapshot, 5.0-20020315-CURRENT, created the
kernel and mfsroot 1.44 floppies, and attempted to boot a desktop
machine from them. This is (from my 4.5-STABLE hard drive):

CPU: Pentium III/Pentium III Xeon/Celeron (733.13-MHz 686-class CPU)
  Origin = "GenuineIntel"  Id = 0x686  Stepping = 6
  Features=0x383f9ff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,
                     MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR,SSE>
real memory  = 402571264 (393136K bytes)

It is an Asus MB with a VIA chipset. Full (4.5) dmesg.boot is attached
at the end of this message.

Once again, the error message is that ACPI cannot be found. BTX then
halts with:

int=00000006  err=00000000  efl=00010006  eip=c0306b40

       00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00-00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
BTX halted


Thanks for your help,

Jeff
