X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en,es MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-install mailing list Subject: Trouble getting flp images to disk Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-install@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Help! What am I doing wrong? Got tools/fdimage.exe, floppies/kern.flp, and floppies/mfsroot.flp via ftp (yeah, I switched to binary mode ...) but ended up with a 'General failure' when putting the image to the floppy using c:\FreeBSD>fdimage kern.flp a: on both NT4 and Win95. After that the drive becomes useless until I restart my PC. I *did* crosscheck the floppy for bad sectors, that should be o.k. I´m working on a standard AcerPower 5400 Box with a x86 Family 5 Model 4 Stepping 3 using IDE-hard disk.
