Hi all,
I'm new to freebsd, but have been working with linux for a few years now.
I'm trying to install freebsd 7.2 on an old Lenovo thinkpad x31, and for that i'm using a Lenovo usb cd.
At first, boot up would hang after detecting ad0. Then, I booted with acpi disabled, which worked, and it loaded the installer.
The problem is that it hangs while I'm trying to select the country (IE, the first item on the installer). I start scrolling for a few seconds, and then it gets stuck, and i have to reset.
Any ideas?
