Well just working on installing Freebsd 5.4 on a Toshiba Tecra M3.
The problem I have run into is that it hangs during the loading the
kernel up. It hangs right after seeing uhci. FreeBSD 6.0 can get
past it, but decided to whack the MBR in the proccess even when
told not to mess with it.
I was wondering what it would take to rework the 5.4 install cd to
it had a 5stable kernel. IIRC I remember seeing some changes to usb
code on it some time post 5.4.
Any ways what I did was to get around the problem of it the partition
table and/or mbr being screwed up by 6.0 was just use partition magic
to convert the ntfs partition to fat32. What this did is it allows me
to use the freebsd boot selector. Then I just installed 6.0.
