Laptops :: Bootin problems on Toshiba Tecra 8000

Hi,

im trying to boot DSL 3.1 on my Tecra 8000 but it always stops very early after displaying the line

Code Sample

"ACPI Bios found, activating modules: ac battery button fan processor thermal"

When i start it with "dsl noacpi" it stops saying:

Code Sample

"Skipping ACPI Bios detection as requested on boot commandline"

i would really enjoy DSL on this machine, so please help me.

Try "apm=off", maybe there is some kind of apm/acpi conflict?

Thanks, but that didn't help.
Any other ideas?

Ok,
acpi=off and nopcmcia brought me one step further. Now the booting process stops later after saying twice something like xauth: creating......./dsl/.../...

noapm noapci apm=off apci=off

if you still have problems, try it with some others.. ie failsafe etc. (see wiki)
