Hello.. My notebook is ibm thinkpad i 1400 model 2621, it has a build in ide cdrom. When I boot the FreeBSD 4.1 Release CD on notebook, the screen shows 'Invalid format' and doesn't boot. Then I try this CD on a desktop and a compaq notebook(presario), the FreeBSD boot smoothly. I assume the CD is okay. The CDROM drive on my notebook can boot the Win2000 professional CD, RedHat Linux CD and a bootable dos CD created by myself without any problem, so it should be okay too. I also tried the FreeBSD 2.x/3.x/4.0 CD, all failed... Any idea? tung To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
