FreeBSD 7.1 on MacBook Pro: sysinstall keyboard problems

2009-02-02 Thread Arjan van Leeuwen
Hi, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE/i386 on a MacBook Pro (October 2008 model) with a US international keyboard. The DVD boots fine, but once I get into sysinstall, it's like the Ctrl key is stuck. Whenever I type 'C' it actually does Ctrl+C (and exits the install), and I can't even get

My 5.3-RELEASE server just paniced with 'icmp_error: bad length". I have no possibilities to do any debugging on this machine, as it runs off a compactflash card with limited space. This could be caused by the crappy built-in Realtek cards, or maybe by something on my own network. Is there a known
