Hi all, when i try to install FreeBSD r7 on a new hdd , freezing on "select country" .....

Any idea?

Use of slackware 12.0 , then cfdisk /dev/sdc and swap and slice; two trials for the slice, A 5 and A6 before installing FreeBSD.

Result: Freezing with "select country".:eek:

Dual-boot: Suse,Slackware,Windobe, and trying Free!!!!!!


Any idea?????

Thanks.

wow, this thread makes next to NO sense

I've never seen freebsd freeze during installation - what country are you selecting?

I'd like to select one country!!!!!!

And I can't move the cursor or mouse or any key to select any country, so my post.

Thanks for your reply.

Are you sure your memory or harddrive is okay?

try plugging in a wired keyboard and see if it works; maybe the logicrap is not supported by the kernel build on the disk.

interesting i had a similar problem with my desktop where the first key press would be held down and i couldn't do anything with my keyboard or mouse also. ultimately i just plugged in a spare usb-to-ps2 adapter
