Monaghan <tim@nmc42.mitre.org> There is a known problem with the console driver in earlier releases of both NetBSD and FreeBSD. I believe that FreeBSD 1.1Beta has it fixed??? I have heard of a work-around (a very nasty one) where you hit a key on the keyboard as the system is coming up. This is just a preliminary reply, until someone who really knows can pipe up with an answer (my work is mostly just VM stuff on FreeBSD.) John dyson@implode.root.com
