Need installation assistance To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello; I am attempting to install FreeBSD 4.4 on a brand new hard drive. However, after several attempted installs I am unable to succed in this effort. I am new to Unix and the reason that I chose free BSD is because of the alleged ease of install. The install fails when attempting to transfer files from the CDROM to my hard drive. I receive the following messages. "unable to transfer (bin,doc,man) from acd0c" and "Write failure on transfer" Im sure there is a fix for this but due to my limited experience with Unix I cant seem to figure it out. Can you help me with this problem. I am really excited about getting the OS up and running so I can further my pursuit on learning Unix. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
