Actualy Installation process stops on the first dialog screen. The steps to avoid this problem are described bellow, but after installation of new kernel with/without atkbdc support it stil impossible to enter to boot loader command promport. System performs countown waiting keypress without any reaction on any keyboard input. Everything becomes ok after it's up. >How-To-Repeat: I believe you just need to boot from the FreeBSD boot CD on system with only USB keyboard present. >Fix: It's still possible to install FreeBSD on system with only USB keyboard present. You just need to remove AT keyboard controller at the kernel configuration screen. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
