I typoed. I really meant to say "boot -v". You enter that at the loader(8) prompt so for it to perform a verbose boot. It gives detailed information about the boot process, including hardware probing and what it eventually finds attached to the system. Here's a couple of things that might put us on the right track: - Does starting the system with the mouse already plugged in cause the system to lock up as well? - Does the machine respond to ping requests when it's "frozen"? - Have you tried another USB mouse? - Does this laptop support USB 2.0? If so, you might want to remove ohci or uhci (they are mutually exclusive on the same ports) and add "ehci". A boot -v with the mouse plugged in at startup time will provide valuable insight into your problem.
