I have a Toshiba Dynabook v4/410pmew Japanese model.(I lived in Japan for 2 years) And I am trying to install FreeBSD. I have tried many other dist of Linux but have always wanted to give FreeBSD a shot. Any way I put in the install iso and it goes to the boot screen and then after it starts the boot it starts to check the hardware config, normal stuff right. And then nothing it gets to the usb0 and says legacy USB device(or something) and freeze. I can't type nothing no ctl+alt+del nothing. I tired disable the USB module to see If that was a problem but no go. I am not a complete n00bie but I am stumped I even tried booting with another Linux disc to see if I can do the install through a command prompt but I don't know enough about Linux or FreeBSD to do that. So any suggestions? Any help would be really great Thanks. Caleb
