Ive tried 4.7, 4.8, 5.0 and 5.1R ( and maybe more earlier )...System is ABIT BG-7 MB, 512M RAM, P4 CPU 2.26 GHz, onboard realtec lan, onboard sound, 6 USB, no firewire internal graphics is disabled, 2 serial, 1 parallel port MSI GF4 4200 video, 64 MB RAM PCI hardware modem NO ISA slots ( and no ISA boards ! ) During boot-up, no driver is attached to internal vga, SMBus or Multimedia - these are all recognized, and it says no driver is attached. I have a USB keyboard and have tried setting hint.atkbd.0.disabled="1" and have gone thru the other hints, disabling all hardware that isnt in machine ( and isnt already disabled ). Am able to run redhat linux, at least to the point of partitioning it, and have installed NETBSD (1.6.1) with success.... Have been "loyal" to freebsd for quite a while, am frustrated by inability to install on this machine HELP ! Dave
