>Organization:
Icarus
>Environment:
FreeBSD 7.1 beta build
>Description:
I cannot boot amd64 cpu based pavilion dv6xxx series laptop with
FreeBSD 7.1 Beta install disk. Same problem occured with 7.0 Release but
later fixed with FreeBSD 7.0-Stable brunch. So the error again appeared with 7.1
/i386 Beta install disk.

It gives me BTX halt error and dumps memory. With amd64 beta build I did not
see the error.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just try to boot FreeBSD i386 7.1 Beta with amd64 pavilion laptops.
