I am not sure what else there is to post. The machine gets to the

it says something like "Probing devices - this may take a while", and then
nothing else happens. I read the 5.1 errata, and tried switching from APIC
to PIC, and disabling the on-board sound card, but this made no difference.



How about disabling the ACPI support (also described in the errata)? How about trying 5.2? [or 4.9 if you'd prefer it "just work"]



Great. Disabling ACPI enables me to boot, so I can proceed from there. Thanks
very much.


I am upgrading because I want better support for my USB flash drive, which
is buggy under 4.7. I know it works with 5.1 on another machine. I will try
5.2 soon.
