Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I've noticed a problem with the 4.1.1-R and 4.2-R CD's that we have... When you boot then in an HP LPR, via it's "Remote Admin" port, everything goes fine - until you get to the blue-background sysinstall utility, at which point - you lose the keyboard... This is on machines with no keyboard of their own, i.e. they use the 'ghosted' keyboard provided by the HP Remote Admin card in the machine... Booting with / without "-P" seems to make no difference... The keyboard works during the kernel config, it's only once sysinstall has loaded that it seems to stop working... Unfortunately I can't get a dmesg output (as I don't have a keyboard) - has anyone come across this before? - or can offer any workarounds?
