I sent the following question to freebsd-cur three months ago and didn't receive any answers, so I thought I would try here since it seems to be hardware related. (Although more than likely driver related.) >Hi > >I'm was running NT and 3.0-cur on a pc and when I tried to boot >FreeBSD the system hung, sometimes during the disk checks during bootup >and sometimes after the disk checks, but before the login message.
