Hi 

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.1-R on a Compaq Armada 1130T (120mhz Pentium
with active screen and 1GB hard disk.)

I've spit the disk so that it has about 500mb for Win95 :( and 500mb for FreeBSD

The problem  I have is when the machine boots it loads the kernel okay,
(it does complains about memory != to bios memory ) and then goes into
the config section. 

If I press enter (without config) it probes the hardware until it gets to apm0
and stops! (read hangs)

I did notice it said it could not fine an irq for the SVGA driver under the PCI
section...

Can you please help, as I have limited experience with laptops/ notebooks.

Thanks

Shaun
