 Hi,
 
 very interesting phenomena. With the Bios Rev. 2.25 I am now able to
 boot 6.2-STABLE-200706-bootonly for i386 w/out acpi, but not amd64 (with
 any options enabled/disabled). With the previous Bios version 2.22, also
 mentioned in the bugreport, this was not possible.
 
 With this configuration, I am able to install 6.2-RELEASE (with the
 requisite bge problems...).
 
 HTH
