It seems that the USB make some conflicts in IRQ , infact , if I enable the option "Allocate IRQ to USB" in the BIOS , I'm unable to start any Installation CD of any distribution , the booting simply hangup . This doesn't happen if I've APIC and ACPI enabled , but if I use the PCI-BIOS mode this happens (nearly all Linux distributions start the system installation without APIC and ACPI ). FreeBSD and NetBSD hasn't this problem , and both those boot without problem and with USB enabled . If I disable the option "Allocate IRQ to USB" in the BIOS the system boot up correctly . Any ideas?
