As above, unable to create partitions on this notebook series (have 2, both behave identically).  I suspect it is related to the keyboard driver: The behavoir of the keyboard is a LOT like the early 2.2 series in that the keyboard produced what looked like random characters with numlock <OFF>.  The state of num and cap locks change the behavior of the keystrokes, but do not allow a partition to be created.

Just to be thorough, I have tried booting from the CD and from floppies on each rev from 2.2.5 to 3.4R.

Fix: 

Not known.
How-To-Repeat: Try and install on this notebook :(

Does this problem still persist with newer FreeBSD releases?
