I have FreeBSD 2.2.2 and while trying to bootup from floopy or CD, I get
the following message and the system hangs:

	PANIC: Double Fault
  
        Syncing Disks ...

The installation manual states that I can use FDISK from the CD but it
is not there on the Installation CD or the Live CD. I am trying to
install on my PC 486DX100 with 48 megabytes of RAM. 

Thanks, 

Larry
