I have an old IBM PS-2 keyboard. When trying to load FreeBSD (any version) from CD there is no response to keyboard actions. I get to where I'm asked what I want to do by using the arrow keys and there is no response. I try to exit and try again and there is no response. I can't get a response to control-alt-delete. I have to shut the box off to try installing again. The hardware is ok because my Linux and OS2 drives work beautifully. How do I trouble shoot when one of my major trouble shooting tools is out of comission? Is this enough info? I looked through the manual and the handbook and there were no references to this problem. I saw nothing in the e-mail archive, either. Any advice? Thank you.
