3 | 'hanging keyboard' |
4 | ------------------ | |
5 | There are still problems with certain machines appearing to 'hang' on | |
6 | bootup even though a prompt is there. The most common machines that | |
7 | exhibit these problems are Gateway 2000 machines with PHOENIX bios's but | |
8 | other machines with PHOENIX bios also exhibit this behavior. | |
9 | The temporary solution until you can get the distribution | |
10 | installed on your hard-drive is to 'bounce' on a key like shift or | |
11 | num-lock (which works well since you can see when the keyboard comes | |
12 | back to life) until the boot sequence is finished. The keyboard will | |
13 | work fine for installing FreeBSD onto the hard-drive. | |
14 | Generally the problems go away at this point, but if it doesn't | |
15 | you should install a SYSCONS kernel which doesn't experience these | |
16 | keyboard problems. | |

19 | The gdb in the release will not work on shared objects nor will it |
20 | work with C++ executables. Please use the gdb in the ports area for | |
21 | debugging shared and/or C++ code. | |

24 | The 3c509 driver will hang under heavy network loads and take your | |
25 | machine off network. (Though the machine will continue to run with | |
26 | no network facilities) | |
