>Description:
	Attempted to install FreeBSD 6.0 RC1 on a Portwell system using
	attached CDROM.  The BIOS works with the USB keyboard, but none
	of the FreeBSD prompts see it.  There's no way to accomplish the
	install because you cannot select any menu choices.

	Earlier, I tried the same install on a Dell system using a Dell
	USB keyboard without luck.

	(I finally installed this Portwell by moving the HDD to a
	Thinkpad notebook and installing there, then replacing the
	HDD.)

>How-To-Repeat:
	Attache a USB keyboard, remove any PS/2 keyboard (if connector
	available), attempt install.

>Fix:
