You need to use the pcvt console driver as it can do scan-mode 2. I'm waiting for more memory on my 750C to see if it helps, since right now the install hangs saying 'using /stand/sysinstall for init' or somesuch. This is YET ANOTHER REASON why users need the ability to build their own custom install kernels. I had to ask Jordan for a copy of the fs-image for one of the SNAPS in order to build a custom kernel.
