FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE amd64 Running sysinstall for "post-installation configuration" of sorts in xterm/konsole/gnome-terminal. Very strange issue: arrow keys work quite well throughout sysinstall menus but in Fdisk and Label screens both up and down arrow keys are interpreted as down key. This is not fatal in Label screen because navigation cycles, but in Fdisk menu you can not reach up from the bottom entry (slice). In system console everything is OK, though. -- Andriy Gapon

It is really meant to be used on wscons/pcons. Try a different terminal emulator and/or a real VTY on your control.
