hello
i have a first revision macbook pro (core duo 2ghz, not core 2 duo!)
i have sort of a problem here
freebsd 6.2 and 7.0 current (5 feb.) don't really boot correctly
i get:
AP #1 (PHY# 1) failed!
panic y/n? [y]

sometimes i get around this problem if i press the power button in the exact right moment.
yesterday i built my own kernel without APIC and SMP support
at least now it boots 100% of the time
but i'd like to use both of my cores
network card doesn't work either...


The SMP issue is going to take a bit of work to get past. However, you
need to have APIC turned on in order for everything else to work right.
So for now, put the following into /boot/loader.conf:

kern.smp.disabled=1

This can also be manually entered from the boot menu so you can install
from a normal CD.
