Jean, Please CC all message to freebsd-questions. If you don't, I will stop answering. Don't use root.flp [it's for floppies > 1.44MB]. Use kern.flp and mfsroot.flp. I think you should read the instructions contained in README.TXT in the floppies directory. Or you could read http://www.freebsddiary.org/freebsd/floppies.htm On 5 May 99, at 16:23, Jean Lee wrote: > Hi,Junk,I install FreeBSD use root.flp at first. > Tip:insert the MFS root disk,So I insert the mfsroot.flp. > But the system halted at soon.and I no choice to do. > How to do ? > > Thank. > > from Jean > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Dan Langille <junkmale@xtra.co.nz> > To: Jean Lee <jeanlee2000@hotmail.com> > Cc: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> > Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 1999 12:38 PM > Subject: Re: hi > > > > Jean > > > > Two things first: > > > > 1 - please don't use long lines.
