HI:

Kinda new at this... I am trying to install fbsd 2.1.7 on a pentium pro
system with an ide cdrom.  Thus far I have been unanble to have it
recognize the cdrom whatsoever.  The only way I have been able to utilize
the cdrom is in the preinstallations staged when running setup through dos.
 I have been unable to get the atapi.flp boot disk to work.. 

I have also tried to utilize the setup program that transfers all of the
files to free space on the drive then install it from there.  This too has
failed.

I was able to get the system to boot earlier, but there is no login
involved or anything I only get a # prompt.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Adam
