Hi there,

I've come across a strange problem while trying to install FreeBSD 5.3.

I am attempting to install 5.3 on a PC suing the only keyboard I have  
available, which is an Apple USB extended one. I can get tot he  
sysinstall screen, but the keyboard at this point does not respond. It  
will respond earlier in the install process. The space bar works, and I  
can stop the countdown to the boot mode. Verbose booting shows that the  
keyboard is detected.

I found this link, but am not sure how (or if I should) adjust the  
loader.conf to use the USB keyboard only.

query=ukbd&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards to all,
Joe
