Howdy,
I am experiencing lockups when trying to install FreeBSD on a Compaq
Armada 4110 laptop. I have tried disabling ACPI support in the boot
sequence per the install doc. When the first color installer screen
comes up requesting modules from a driver floppy, I am unable to respond
because the keyboard does not respond.
I tried an OpenBSD boot disk, which worked, so I mounted a floppy and
redirected the OpenBSD dmesg to a file:

I am going to try to set the device.hints settings to match these and
see if I can get it to boot, but I was wondering if anyone had a pointer
for me?
I am not subscribed right now, please CC me with any info.
