Only after installing Linux on the server i made an last attempt and booted some rescue cd (http://www.sysresccd.org/ ) which had the "smart boot manager" on it. i got into the smart boot manager, changed the cd to a 5.x one and selected to boot from cd and it worked. I have attached a dmesg from the server, since then updated to Beta4 (it was before the beta phase when i tried it) > -Jim > _______________________________________________ Ciao, Jochen -- -------------------------------------------------- Jochen Knuth WebMaster http://www.ipro.de IPRO GmbH Phone ++49-7152-93330 Steinbeisstr. 6 Fax ++49-7152-933340 71229 Leonberg EMail: J.Knuth@ipro.de --------------070504080201000402060007 Content-Type: text/plain; name="dmesg.txt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="dmesg.txt" Copyright (c) 1992-2004 The FreeBSD Project.
