>Environment:
NA,  System freezes at keyboard board and USB (no USB on this chipset)
>Description:

System will boot with FreBSD 5.x or 4.x release, however using 6.1, or 6.0-Release the system will hang/freeze at keyboard detection. It will not test keyboard (numlock/scroll/caps) and flash LEDs.  Using ACPI or safe mode results in the same problem.

SMP support on Compaq 1850r (Dual P3/450/512/100) is required, would prefer running 6.x release of BSD.


>How-To-Repeat:

Boot with FreeBSD 6.0-Release or FreeBSD 6-1 BOOT ONLY or install CD #1.

NO KNOWN FIX
