Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi everyone... I'm currently attempting to install the 2.2-960323 snapshot of freebsd on a spare cyrix-based 486 we've got here. The boot floppy runs fine, until we get to: changing root device to fd0c rootfs is 1116 Kbyte compiled in MFS And then the machine hangs. Can you help me here? The machine's fairly standard... 8MB RAM, two IDE drives, all run-of-the-mill stuff. Any ideas? /-------------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Justin Viiret Cyburbia Network Services | | justin@cyburbia.bns.com.au Co-sysadmin | | http://cyburbia.bns.com.au/~justin A96 Music Competition (dis)Organiser | \------------------[Relax, it's only ones and zeroes.]--------------------/
