>Environment:
Not possible - if I disable USB in BIOS, there is another problem during the boot process. It hangs on "Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0" (NOT a freeze, I suppose, since numlock is still working).
>Description:
The system freezes on boot just after the menu (with the daemon on the right side). It doesn't matter if I choose to boot without ACPI or any other option. Right after hitting RETURN this "progress-thingy" (sorry for my bad english) in the lower left corner shows up and then stops after few seconds. I encountered exactly the same error with FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-AMD64. My mainboard is an FSC D1607 - without the latest BIOS version, because there is nothing in the changelogs that looks like it could help to solve the problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just press RESET and try to install FreeBSD again.
>Fix:
Disable USB in BIOS completely.
