Hello!                                                                                               
                                                                                                     
I am having difficulties booting FreeBSD 5.3 withou ACPI,                                            
nothing in my kernelconfig indicates that ACPI is enabled.                                           
In /boot/device.hints and loader.conf, I have put 
hint.acpi.0.disabled="1", and I have also tried to 
delete/temp move  /boot/kernel/acpi* ..                        

And in adition to that I'm chosing "2. Boot with ACPI disabled"                                      
from the bootloader menu.                                                                            
                                                                                                     
Yet, still I find ACPI in my kernel:                                                                 
dev# kldstat -v | grep acpi

Is there another way to disable ACPI in 5.3?                                                         
                                                                                                     
My computer constantly crashes with ACPI since I put in                                              
a Hi-Point ata-100 controller..                                                                      
                                                                                                     
Regards
