With ACPI 3.0 and 3.01 the server traps.

As requested a ticket on this bug.

ACPI never realy worked on this machine, HOWEVER, turned out a BIOS upgrade was required! Its an IBM Xseries 345 with 2 Xeon CPU's ​http://en.ecomstation.ru/hardware.php?action=item&id=1194

ACPI 2.22 worked mostly however 3.0 and 3.01 trap the server.

This is the update that was required: ​http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisp lay?brandind=5000008&lndocid=MIGR-43902 (Maybe its usefull since the diskette images contains the BIOS images etc).

Loading the _W4 kernel and ACPI 3.01 without any switches in the config.sys results in:

Exception in module ACPI

I can NOT make a memory dump. CTRL ALT F10 does not respond, server hangs solid. This trap occurs instantly when the machine starts up and loads the PSD.

I will open another ticket for the problem with the trace tool.

Using a MSI K9n4 Ultra mother board (Nvideo nforce 500). with a X2 processor.

Hangs at the RC1 splash screen. It works with the /N option.

ACPI 3.04 and above

I want the OSI and OS switch to now default to" Microsoft Windows NT" based on the following items. Especialy item 2. I see no other route.

1. Daniela here comment on ACPI and /OS switch to be defaulted to "Microsoft Windows NT".

Item 2

/*

• OS name, used for the _OS object. The _OS object is essentially obsolete,
• but there is a large base of ASL/AML code in existing machines that check
• for the string below. The use of this string usually guarantees that
• the ASL will execute down the most tested code path. Also, there is some
• code that will not execute the _OSI method unless _OS matches the string
• below. Therefore, change this string at your own risk.
