I'm having problems installing FreeBSD on my IBM 360 thinkpad. It boots
fine and finds all my hardware fine, but when I get to the main install
screen, the keyboard gets all messed up and some of the keys work but
their posistion is wierd, and the rest of the keys don't work. Has any
one installed on this kind of laptop or know how to fix this? It has a
486sx33 with 12Megs and a 340HDD, oh yeah and a B&W display. Thanks for
any help.
