For the first time install, you should remove all hardware not necessary for a simple basic system. In your case remove the sound card, cd-rw drive, videocard, and any other hardware to get to a simple basic system. After the install add one piece back at a time. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of JH Sent: Tuesday, July 02, 2002 2:46 AM To: questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Installation of FreeBSD 4.6 failure Hi, I would like to try FreeBSD, I'm trying to install the 4.6 version but to no avail. The installation process with the CD only goes as far as the first screen of sysinstall and then the whole computer locks-up hard, no error messages, and I have to reboot. I have the following hardware: Matrox G400 videocard Seagate ST33232A H/D Gigabyte GA-6VXE7 with a VIA 82C596B chipset Intel Pentium 3 CPU Creative CD-RW RW3260E Soundblaster 16 soundcard (isa) 256 MB sdram I'm using Linux RedHat at the moment without any problems. I have searched everywhere for any clues on this problem without any luck. Thanks in advance for any help.
