Can anyone point me to a good how-to or other resource for making a set 
of installation disks for a legacy free box.  In other words, I have 
several computers that only has USB mouse and keyboard, no parallel 
port, no serial ports.  (They do not have a place for any other 
keyboard.  So, please, don't suggest getting a different keyboard.) When 
I try to install with the installation boot disk, everything works until 
I get to the installation menu.  At that point, I have no way of giving 
the computer input.  I have other FreeBSD machines that I could build a 
kernel or drivers on, I just don't know what needs added.  I tried 
compiling a kernel on another box and using it for the boot disk. It 
recognized the USB keyboard, but I still could not use it.

Thanks.
