I've just installed gentoo-fbsd according to the docs.
I've downloaded
the latest version including the 6.1 kernel, which I
compiled by hand.
After much fooling around I've manged to get it booting.
However, when I
get to the login prompt at the end of the boot process,
nothing happens
when I type characters at the keyboard. The keyboard input
seems to work
during the bootup process.
I've had similar problems with fbsd in the past - usually
when xdm/kdm is
started with a script. I suspect this is a similar problem
but I can't
pinpoint it.
I've already posted a question on the forums but I haven't
had many views
and no answers. Please forgive me for double posting!
P.S. I had a lot of difficulty mounting my new root
partition read-write
using freesbie. Maybe the doc should point out that you can
fix this by
running fsck on the root partition first.
