--- Comment #13 from Henrich Hartzer <h...@hartzer.sh> --- Some more testing... I'm able to disable multi-core in the BIOS which has identical behavior to disabling SMP in loader.conf, allowing me to boot on the T400. I've been using my Thinkpad R500 with 2GB of memory. I put 8GB in and while it's able to boot the installer, hangs around the Intel wifi firmware loading, or elsewhere. So I tested the T400 (which has an up-to-date BIOs, by the way. The R500 does not.) with 4GB of memory. Same issue booting the installer. With 2GB, it boots the installer just fine (with SMP) and my SSD with 14.2 just fine. I'm typing on it now. So it appears to be related to 14.2, maybe these old Core2Duos, and 4GB of memory or more. Anthony, would you mind confirming how much memory your T400 has? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
