>Description:
I bought a new lappy the other day and I thought to power it with FreeBSD but seems it has some sort of problem with my ral0 WiFi chip (Ralink's RT5390) as whenever I try to enable WiFi by creating a wlan0 device and up it from official install DVD's LiveCD mode, the console locks up and I can't even change terminal. Keyboard and screen also lock up; only way out is to hard reset the laptop.

I figured Ralink chips are well supported but this one is giving me a headache for some reason. I tried both amd64 9.1-RELEASE and 10-CURRENT but to no avail.

Here's dmesg output from within the LiveCD:

Also, pciconf -l -v output:

I'm trying to configure WiFi by following the Handbook:

Code:
# ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ral0
wlan0: Ethernet address: a4:17:31:0f:47:94
Code:
# ifconfig wlan0 up scan
And this is the place where everything locks up, on bringing device up. Let me know if I could do anything else. 

Thanks in advance.
>How-To-Repeat:
bring device up by:

# ifconfig wlan0 up
