hello

I had installed the FreeBSD 2.1 on my machine, it is a pentium 100 - s

with 16 MB of ram memory and a 730 MB HDD dedicated only to the

FreeBSD system my CDr is a SCSI based one and the installation util

finds it with no problems.

I also have 850 and 120 MB HDD with MS-Windows95 installed apon.

while finishing the installation that B.T.W. was of 'novise' kind,

I got the msg. telling me : 'panic: canot mount root'.

I had myHDD formated and repatitioned and after that reinstalled the
FreeBSD.

well, it was the same  all over again.

I am desperate now and before i try linux (and this is NOT a freat) i
would like

your advice.

pls, do harry becouse i need this unix OS very much.

thanks

Madg
