Hey Jerry, looks like something wrong with USB, maybe someone at the freebsd-usb or HPS (CC) will know the issue / solution :-) In the meantime I would try with USB/MemStick image instead of ISO/CD just to make sure the problem is not with USB-CD device. Is this a regression issue from 11.x ? --HPS ___ freebsd-usb@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-usb To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-usb-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
