Date: 16 Dec 1995 18:13:38 GMT Organization: EMBA Computer Facility, The University of Vermont Lines: 19 Message-ID: <4av28i$lb9@swen.emba.uvm.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: hal.emba.uvm.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I just installed FreeBSD 2.1 on my laptop (Zenith Z-note 486SL33, 8M RAM, 200MB Hard Drive) and it worked great! I must comment that the new install is really slick and handles errors really well. Anyhow after installing I went to recompile my own kernel and just changed the GENERIC config around to get rid of devices that I don't have. After that I compile, install, and reboot and it boots just fine, however, when I get to the login prompt my keyboard is dead. I can't type anything. If I reboot with the generic kernel it works fine, but when I try and use mine nothing works. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! -Todd -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ thuss@moose.uvm.edu Todd C.
