Looking at your listings, you aren't trying to do a clean install, you're trying to do a complete rebuild. If you don't have your system completely built ALREADY at this point, it's a bit like trying to buy a car by putting one together, armed with a nice screwdriver. Back up, tell us if you have a system installed. IF that's true, then stop complaining about trying to install a system, because you have that, instead begin researching (by using the FreeBSD handbook) how to recompile a kernel. If you aren't at least somewhat of a programmer, then you're going to need to get a friend who IS one to help you out ... maybe, learn how to use the FreeBSD IRC channel, it's fairly good. The way it goes is, first yo uget yourself a system installed, then you worry about getting a system recompiled. Along the way you will do a whole lot of learning. BUT stop complaining about not getting your system to "work properly" unless that really is your problem, cause all you're going to do is confuse and upset people who want to help you. > > For the record, I cvsup'd to cvsup2, and I've tried that server on > another already installed 5.3-RELEASE and it worked fine.
