I've googled an= d found the following old thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org/msg03470.html And the following forum post: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=3D3048 But there is no solution proposed. I've tried everything I can think of. = I have a pxeboot setup and could boot custom kernels but I'm just not sure = what to change. I've tried 7.0, 7.2, 7.2-p3, 8 beta, 8-current all amd64 a= nd none of them will get to the sysinstall screen. If I try install the i386 version I can get to the sysinstall screen but if= I push up/down once it scrolls to the top/bottom and then its locked all k= eys are dead I've tried two different USB keyboards. There are no PS2 port= s on this motherboard. Is available to guide me to try solve this problem. Kind Regards -- David Peall
