>Description:
When booting FreeBSD 6.3 RC2 (boot only cd i.e NOT CD1) from a Dell Latitude D830 Laptop with ACPI (Choice #1 at bootmenu), it hangs and gives the following statement:

loading required module 'pci'
ACPI autoload failed - no such file or directory


It seems some files are missing?
>How-To-Repeat:
Buy a Dell D830 and download FreeBSD RC2 boot only CD, and boot from it.
