I need to use the AMD64 distribution, as I understand, to utilize over 4GB of ram. Unfortunately I cannot boot from any of the FreeBSD CDs : 7.0-RELEASE-AMD64 6.3-RELEASE-AMD64 I will try 8.0-CURRENT-AMD64, however I don't think it will matter. Since I'm not using "unusual" hardware, but rather hardware that has been established at least since 2003, I was hoping that someone else may have encountered this problem. If anyone can assist me , it would be greatly appreciated. The specific error message is as follows : int=0000000d err=00000000 efl=00010006 eip=000219b2 eax=000219ac ebx=00000000 ecx=c0000080 edx=0006d948 esi=0003e007 edi=00000000 ebp=000940bc esp=0009e088 cs=0008 ds=0010 fs=0010 gs=0010 ss=0010 cs:eip=0f 32 0d 00 01 00 00 0f-30 0f 20 e0 83 c8 30 0f 22 e0 b8 00 c0 03 00 0f-22 d8 0f 20 c0 0d 00 00 Ss:eso=90 95 00 00 00 80 fc 00-00 90 fc 00 07 e0 03 00 00 00 00 00 07 d0 03 00-00 00 00 00 3c d9 06 00 BTX halted The above happens /JUST/ after pressing "enter" at the boot screen when booting from the FreeBSD cd.
