Hello,
Today I found the source of the problem.
When I deactivate the second CPU core in the BIOS of the notebook, then I can
start and use Haiku Alpha 2.
By the way, I have the same problem with the newest nightly build.
Please note that I tried all options in the safe mode and I deactivated the
power management, the LAN, the wireless functions and almost anything that I
could find in the BIOS configuration and the Haiku safe boot menu.
Nothing helped.
Only when I deactivate the second CPU core, then Haiku Alpha 2 runs, even when
all the other features are activated.
Why is this so?
The Haiku Alpha 1 version runs wonderful on this notebook, even with both CPU
cores.
What was changes between Alpha 1 and Alpha 2 that could cause such a problem?
Best wishes,
Miroslav
