Hubbard" Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Jordan, I tried both boot.flp and boot4.flp to install 2.2-960323 and could not get it installed. The problem I believe is the network code. The installor stops (hangs) after network started or a little bit after. What happened is that it stopped at stand/ls been copied. (I did many times it always stopped at same place). Then I changed to use boot4.flp, it stopped just after network initialized. So, I ftp the boot.flp again, and it works better, it got /bin loaded, then hung again. I don't know if this is caused by corrupted boot.flp during ftp, or this is a bug. The hardware configration I tried is: Intel PT2000 (Triton) + Pentinum-100 CPU 3Com 509B ether card Western Digital 850 MB hard disk drive Other devices are not used for installation. I download 2.2-960323 to a local server, and installed via NFS. Now, I reinstalled 2.1.0, and it works well. So, this problem is in either 2.2-960323 boot.flp/root.flp, or during ftp (unlikely). Please give me a clue, I may try on the other machines to see what will happen. Thanks, -Jin
