Instead the installer went to the partition tool. Once this was finished the installation started. Now, without specify the MBR type I suppose I will, once again, get the "Read Error". I find it extremely odd that each time I try to install the installer acts different. Yes, I choose Novice each time. This kind of reminds me of the NT installer only alittle easier. But then again, I was finally able to get NT installed. Something I have yet been able to do with FreeBSD. -- James To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
