    Well just working on installing Freebsd 5.4 on a Toshiba Tecra M3.
    The problem I have run into is that it hangs during the loading the
    kernel up. It hangs right after seeing uhci. FreeBSD 6.0 can get past
    it, but decided to whack the MBR in the proccess even when told not
    to mess with it.

    I was wondering what it would take to rework the 5.4 install cd to it
    had a 5stable kernel. IIRC I remember seeing some changes to usb code
    on it some time post 5.4.
