Hi,
I'm trying to install FreeBSD on a laptop, with the memstick images.
I tried the 9.0 and the 8.3, the only difference is the 8.3 reboots everytime until I press space then enter, but after that, same thing.
Both stops after the line 'loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf', on a /.
Sometimes I get the kernel line, sometimes even the things after that
(things like /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x64daa0 data=0xa4e80+0xa9e40 syms=[0x4+0x6cac0+0x4+0x88e9d], but not actually those, I've googled that), and stops on a |.
I found on some other posts it could be switching to serial port, and I have one, but on the top of the screen it says that it'll use keyboard and screen as console.
Is there some option I should try to pass to the loader to prevent it to stop like that ?
This laptop is currently running Gentoo & Windows, I'd like to replace the Gentoo.
