Subject: problem during hardware probing


> Hello,
> 
> I can't install freebsd 4.6 (nor 4.5) on my notebook (compaq presario 
> 1211 EA).
> 
> At the beginning of the installation process, during hardware probing, 
> the program freeze. The last two lines displayed before freezing are:
> 
> sc0: <System console> at drq 0 flag 0x100 on isa0
> sc0: VGA <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x300>
> 
> At first, I thought that the value 0x100 and 0x300 where not correct, 
> and so I tried to change them in the kernel configuration section.
> 
> I found the line
> 
> Syscons console driver sc0 flags: 0x???
> 
> and replaced the "???" by common values such as 0x100, 0x200 and 0x300.
> But none of them solved my problem.
> 
> I've also tried other Unix and Linux distributions such as netBSD, Suse, 
> Caldera... But it always fail during hardware probing.

> It would be great if someone could throw light on this problem for
