this option provides a hint as to the actual size of
system memory (which will be tested before use).
+ set hw.{acpi,pci}.host_start_mem=<value>
+
+ Sets the lowest address that the pci code will assign
+ when it doesn't have other information about the address
+ to assign (like from a pci bridge). This is only useful
+ in older systems without a pci bridge. Also, it only
+ impacts devices that the BIOS doesn't assign to, typically
+ CardBus bridges. The default <value> is 0x80000000, but
+ some systems need values like 0xf0000000, 0xfc000000 or
+ 0xfe000000 may be suitable for older systems (the older
+ the system, the higher the number typically should be).

set hw.pci.enable_io_modes=<value>
