I have never been able to get through an install of either 5.4 or 6.0 on 
my HP Pavillion zv5445us laptop.  Trying to install 5.4 would poweroff 
the latop, and 6.0 hangs during the install.  I have not tried 4.10, and 
was hoping I wouldn't have to.  I had tried earlier version of 5.x when 
they were out (5.3 I think).

I posted the error messages to the mobile list, and didn't get a 
response - I guess no one has this type of laptop. 

Has anyone had any luck with any version of FreeBSD on any version of HP 
Pavillion laptop?
