Hello,

Still no luck. Today, I tried waiting till the timeout expired, but what
happened was, that in the middle of probing, the machine got rebooted.
It was the same with FreeBSD 6.1 and FreeBSD 6.2. I was trying to boot
from the CD.

The last text on the console was (in verbose boot mode):

------------------------------------------------------------------

After that, a reboot happened. The problem is, that I need 'umass'
driver if I wan't to be able to read either USB disk or CDROM, since
HS21 communicates with outer world only via USB and ethernet.

Any more ideas?

Or else, I will have to provide PXE boot environment (including the
kernel without umass support) on my laptop and connect it via cross-over
cable. Do you think this might work?

Thanks,
Nejc
