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

        work with C++ executables.  Please use the gdb in the ports area for
        debugging shared and/or C++ code.

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