Hello, I have been trying to install FreeBSD 6.0 (I have tried the 7.0 current but I cant get it to boot, the cd spins up when pressing the C key but it doesnt boot off the cd, anyhow thats a different problem...) on my PowerBook G4 17" model with the ATI video card (I am not sure of the revision, but in the info it says Machine Model: PowerBook5,3). It boots to the Sysinstall portion, and I can not enter any thing. I have tried booting with an external USB keyboard, disabling the bluetooth with hint pcib.1.slotnumber=26 at the loader portion, and then loading the kernel but the same happens everytime. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
