 Disabling ACPI with boot -2 resolves the problem.  Any ideas? ;-)

Re: port-i386/46486: cannot boot install image (cannot mount root)

Sorry, my memory failed me.  I don't know why I thought what I did.

Anyway, what _actually_ is the case:  The system doesn't lock up  in
ddb if I use -2 to disable SMP.  Then I can specify the root device.
It still thinks root should be cd0a, not cd0d, whether using ahcisata
or piixide.  I'll keep this updated in case I make any more mistakes
or actually manage to figure something out. ;-)

Re: kern/46481: page fault in uvmspace_free -> uvm_unmap_remove -> pmap_remove -> pmap_pdes_invalid

I also see this problem quite easily, with both 6.0_BETA2 and -current.

it was introduced by this change:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2012/04/20/msg033858.html
(support for 256 CPUs on amd64)

with that change reverted, this problem no longer occurs,
nor do other problems that I've seen on native amd64.

>Description:
I just tried the installer of NetBSD 6.0_BETA2 for the first time. I'm not sure I am happy with the new menu
based configuration of additional items. I always liked the simplicity of the NetBSD installer compared
to FreeBSD or Linux. It used to do less (much less), but much better. BTW: That's a change I wouldn't expect
between BETA1 and BETA2 and so close to release.

Anyway: When selecting option "e) Enable installation of binary packages", there seems to be no way back,
once that option has been selected. I'd like to have a "cancel" function to return to the previous menu
without actually changing anything.

 I measure the performance before loading the "acpicpu" module, after
 loading the module and after setting "hw.acpi.cpu.dynamic" to "0".
 There was not dramatic change.

 The reboot must have fixed some other weird problem.
