Re: 9.0 Installing issues

First of all, "boot -1" did the trick. Now of course I am wondering how 
to get my 2nd CPU back, as even after install, I do have to disable the 
second CPU.
The next item after fd0 is the USB hub by the way, see dmesg below.

As for the other machine:

I do not have any amd64 USB images, just rechecked, so we can rule out 
that.
Good news, I do have a serial port, in fact real physical two of them, 
but so far I have not been able to get anything displayed on either. 
Tried with 9600 baud, as I wanted to copy the install messages.

However, this has been before boot(8), so I'll give that a try as well. 
But first I would like to have my 2nd CPU being used again.

Any information I can provide to resolve this?

dmesg, showing some ACPI warnings, but disabling ACPI (boot -2) did not 
help:
