I been trying to install OpenBSD 3.7 and/ or 3.5 in my new laptop (new
means it was bought in September, 2004). The bootloader get stuck at
"pckbc0 ISA Q Port 0x60/5" every time.

Oddly both 3.5 and 3.7 giving me the same error and getting stuck at
the same place.

I tried to boot with boot_menuconfig(8) and did "boot -c" and then
"verbose" and it says:

"probing for pckbc0
probing for pckbc0 succeeded
pckbc0"

and then it is stuck their eternally.

I have also tried to disable pckbc0 but if I do so it fails to
recognize a lot of hardware but I get the shell prompt and then my
keyboard does not work.

The new laptops details are given below:

Toshiba Satellite, Mobile Intel Pentium 4, 3.20GHz processor speed,
510 RAM, DVD+CD-burner combo, 70GB HDD, Wifi (Atheros 802.11g).

Any help on how to circumvent the problem would be much appreciated.
