I was able to install the basic FreeBSD files and it rebooted. I used the 7.2 that Manolis created. However there were errors with trying to load the install for xorg. This new xorg is the same version that I have not been able to get to work on my test box either with a regular HDD. That said everything else seems to be there as expected. Thanks for that p1 version for speeding up a default install. I have the test box trying to load an xorg from the main server to correct this issue for me. I will report on if that cures the problem. On the download of 7.2 p1 it said CD-DVD iso. but I think the file is too big for a CD. The only errors were about xorg and associated libs. Can anyone enlighten me on this?. Again thanks to the FreeBSD list support we are making progress. ~Al Plant - Honolulu, Hawaii - Phone: 808-284-2740 + http://hawaiidakine.com + http://freebsdinfo.org + + http://aloha50.net - Supporting - FreeBSD 6.* - 7.* - 8.* + < email: noc@hdk5.net > "All that's really worth doing is what we do for others."- Lewis Carrol
