I'll still try to make some suggestions for what to do, but 5.2.1 is old enough that your best bet might be to try the latest 5.3beta release, or even consider falling back to 4.10. If 5.3 works for you, that would be easier than tracking down whatever got fixed since 5.2.1. > i have searched most of the freebsd handbook, any forum i could find, > and talking to a firend i can find NOTHING about this. apparently i'm > the only newbie to ever have this problem. > i thought it was my keyboard and mouse being usb, so i tried ps/2 ones. > the only difference is one it hits that error it actually reboots in > 15sec like it says. Things to try include doing the install in "safe mode", which disables APIC and ACPI. Make sure "PnP OS" is set to "no" in the BIOS, and maybe consider disabling your USB controller entirely for a bit in order to see whether the install can procede. If that doesn't help, try to provide a more complete error message from the panic. -- -Chuck
