I am having trouble installing FreeBSD. I have written FreeBSD onto CD, and have gone through the installation instructions, and when it comes to copying the files from the CD, then it hangs, either during the bin stage or the doc stage. I have copied the files from the CD to a directory on my Windows XP system... c:\FreeBSD. How would I go about installing it from this directory? When I try and install it from a Dos partition, it says that there is no Dos partition. Would I be able to specify a File System location? And if so, what would it be? Many Thanks. Kind Regards. Ryan Hermanson. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
