I'm trying to install 2.1.5 from the Walnut Creek CD-ROM. Here is a list of problems I'm having: 1. The motherboard is a AMI Merlin DP Pentium PRO 200MHZ. Only on CPU installed. I have installed 128 meg of ram, but freebsd only seems to see the first 64 meg of ram. 2. When adding packages using sysinstall, it (sysinstall) complains that it can not find a lot of the packages (including Xfree86!). I made a boot floppy and boot off of the floppy and installed of the SCSI CD-ROM. 3. After installing several packages, sysinstall start complaining that there was some error and to check to other VTTY. In doing so, I see a lot of "proc: system full" (or somthing similar to that, I'm not near the machine right now). Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Kory
