Description Tobias Mohrlueder 2004-11-16 20:20:28 UTC

      The system freezes on boot just after the menu (with the daemon on the right side). It doesn't matter if I choose to boot without ACPI or any other option. Right after hitting RETURN this "progress-thingy" (sorry for my bad english) in the lower left corner shows up and then stops after few seconds. I encountered exactly the same error with FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-AMD64. My mainboard is an FSC D1607 - without the latest BIOS version, because there is nothing in the changelogs that looks like it could help to solve the problem.

Fix: 

Disable USB in BIOS completely.
How-To-Repeat:       Just press RESET and try to install FreeBSD again.
