Re: install problems on hp 2000 laptop

try the 5.0 release you're 1 version bit old. 5.1 is coming up soon.
unless you know what your doing and want to play around with -current.
I suggest you go for the latest release. a dmesg would also not hurt
that is if you want someone to take a good look at your issue.

(AMD e-300 Dual Core 1.3MHZ, 4GB memory, 500 GB HD). Everything goes fine
until the Install (I) Upgrade (U) Shell (S)b  prompt, when I get a message
pckbcintr: no dev for slot 1b  that appears 8 to 10 times in a row. Also, the
repeat rate gets screwed up: when I try to hit b [Enter]b  for the # prompt,
and b haltb , the echo is b hhaaaaalttttb , sometimes interrupted by that b
pckbcintrb  message. I think I may be having problems with the keyboard
language, which keeps slipping into the Canadian-French version (as printed in
blue on my keyboard)b perhaps I am hitting a shortcut by mistake?, but that is
a separate issue. Any ideas would be appreciated.
