        Laugh,  it's actually a toshiba POS.  I wish I had realised that the BIOS was 
so feeble.  One of the reasons I'm checking out FreeBSD is so that I can tinker with 
different stuff.  Oh well...

        Is this something that FreeBSD team has considered or is considering 
supporting PnP enforced BIOSes systems? Or am I SOL?
