It's = probably a common one, but I couldn't find a word about it on = freebsd.org. I boot from the CD (version is 5.0), but when it gets to = the "probing for devices" screen, it hangs. I disconnected my internal = Zip drive, but that did absolutely nothing. I'm really excited about = using FreeBSD and I would truly appreciate any help you folks can = provide. Cheers, Casey
