    v1 v2  
    11Ticket added by Roderick Klein.

    3 In eCS 2.0 RC5 there will be a patched resource.sys. This resource.sys will look for previous.acp. Since it will never find this file, will do a full hardware detect.
    4 
    5 We did this because with ACPI there is a bigger chance for IRQ's and other hardware resources to change when the system is rebooted. Next to that resource.sys tends to trap when attempting to read a corrupted previous.dat (there have been a few isolated cases on HPFS where this happened). Previous.dat gets written by a DLL loaded when the WPS gets loaded.

    73With ACPI not loaded on my T60, the output of PCIBUS.SNP is not included in previous.dat (see attached files).
