i have an omnibook 500 and that happened to me as well. i dimly remember booting from the 4.3 install disks and in the install options specifying 4.4 as the release to install.

I got an omnibook 500 today but it completely fails to install FreeBSD. I have it with a floppy drive. Booting from kern and mfsroot goes fine, but just after probing ad0, the system kind of hangs. I disabled all unnecessaryy devices and upgraded the BIOS.

With 'kind of hangs' I mean that ctrl-alt-del does not work, and also scroll lock will not work (though the scrolllock led is turned on). Ctrl-alt-esc gives the No debugger in kernel message and that is about it.

Does anyone recogize this? Anyone has other options?

(I do not have a cd or dvd drive with it).
