I then booted from the FBSD CD (First time I have done this in years I have been upgrading with source.) Anyway I get an ascii drawing of daemond 7 choices and whatever I choose the damm thing reboots in a few seconds before it has installed anything. Can anybody suggest what to do to fix this sorry state of affairs ? Eric
