Hello:

I modified /etc/rc like this:

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/
export PATH

mount -u /
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmp
#sysctl -w kern.timecounter.hardware=ichlpcib0
sysctl -w kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254


# create a gettytab to autologin and run sysinst
echo "# Autostart sysinst" > /tmp/gettytab



I have tried both entering in the installer normaly, without boot -2 
(ACPI ON)

with ichlpcib0 I see no errors but internal keyboard does not work. 
Repetitions on the external keyboard. Same as at the beginning.

i8254 plenty of errors.

Thanks.
