Installation problem
Hi I am trying to install freebsd5.3 beta1 on my Toshiba Dynabook PIII with 240mb ram and 40 gb hdd but every time the initial boot gets to the USB driver it stops (freeze) the only thing I can do is hold down the power button 5 secs. I have tried running with acpi disabled and tried to disable the USB module, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas. If I am having this problem now, and I do get it to install will I have the same problem when I try to use USB after install. Any help would be great. thanks Caleb ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Install freeze
Hi sorry to bother anyone, but I have looked high and low for about 4 days trying to find a solution to this problem with no avail. I have a Toshiba Dynabook v4/410pmew Japanese model.(I lived in Japan for 2 years) And I am trying to install FreeBSD. I have tried many other dist of Linux but have always wanted to give FreeBSD a shot. Any way I put in the install iso and it goes to the boot screen and then after it starts the boot it starts to check the hardware config, normal stuff right. And then nothing it gets to the usb0 and says legacy USB device(or something) and freeze. I can't type nothing no ctl+alt+del nothing. I tired disable the USB module to see If that was a problem but no go. I am not a complete n00bie but I am stumped I even tried booting with another Linux disc to see if I can do the install through a command prompt but I don't know enough about Linux or FreeBSD to do that. So any suggestions? Any help would be really great Thanks.
