Hello, I am unable to boot (and much less install) FreeBSD on a Dell Dimension3100 computer, apparently due to some usb problems. here's the error message <snip> sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0 sio0: type 8250 or not responding sio0: [ITHREAD] sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs sio1: port may not be enabled usb1: controller halted uhub1: device problem (IOERROR) disabling port 1 <snip> then the system continues to boot normally and I am greeted by sysinstall. However the keyboard (and all other usb devices) no longer functions, rendering the system unusable. I tried to install 7.0-RC3 but this problem seems to affects other versions as well. I found an unsolved PR from 2006 (!) in which several users have reported similar issues: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=100746 Is there some way to fix this? Thanks in advance for your help. Pak _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
