            Bug ID: 241972
           Summary: Unable to install FreeBSD 12.1 on Dell XPS 8930
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc

          Reporter: gerard_seibert at outlook.com

I am trying to new a new install of FreeBSD 12.1 on a Dell XPS 8930 PC. I am
using the "Boot Only" CD. I had to disable secure boot on the XPS in order for
it to use the CD.

Now, once the CD starts up, the "login" screen appears. I wait for that to time
out and then the screen starts to fill up with messages. Then, this message is
repeated ad infinitum:

uhub_reattach_port: giving up port reset - device vanished

It never stops and makes continuing with the installation impossible. I have
Googles for a solution, but without results.
