[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello FreeBSD users! When I try to install FreeBSD 3.4 STABLE I run into some serious problems. I boot the computer with the installation CD, make the proper hardware configuration, make the FreeBSD slice and necessary labels... but when I try to make a custom installation the system immediately hangs with a message "Caught a signal 11, I'm trying to save everything and shutting down... etc etc", and the installation fails. The thing is, I can install FreeBSD by using one of the installation packages, and that seems to work just fine, but when I run /stand/sysinstall and try to add some of the distributions I get the same "signal 11 error". These problems does not appear when installing the previous version, FreeBSD 3.3 STABLE. What is this signal 11 error, and why is it turning my installation/uppgrading into nothing??? Thank you for your comments on this!
