There's no need for that.  I recognize the problem:  He's using
the graphical console (which AFAIK was never supported on the
Blade 100), and I got the messages he was getting.

You can only successfully install FreeBSD on a Blade 100 by using
a serial console.  This information needs to be documented
properly, if it isn't already (a copy of the above messages would
probably help identifying the problem).

Unless, of course, I am out of date.  But this was true only a
few months ago.  :-)
