Description Patrick Oonk 2006-04-04 10:10:15 UTC 
I am trying to install FreeBSD 6.0 on a Sparc U10.
I am using a DEC VT-420 terminal in VT-100 mode.
The installer does not show any highlighting nor do
the cursor keys work. Installing is impossible.

How-To-Repeat: Hook up a DEC VT-420 to a Sparc U10 and try to install FreeBSD 6.0

I just installed Release 6.2 on an E420R with an HP 700/96 in VT100
mode and it worked flawlessly

"I have just installed 7.1-BETA on Ultra5 with Wyse WY-60 terminal in 
VT-100 mode. 
The installer does show highlighting as expected and the cursor keys work. 
I think that this PR could be closed."
