Guys,

I'm stuck.  When I try to install (I'm using 2.2.5) I get the following message.

Error mounting /dev/wcd0c on /dist.  Input/output error (5).

A second, following error reads

Unable to initialize selected media.

Note that I have had a system up and running, twice before.  Unfortunately, both times were followed, after several months, by disk crashes.  So I am once again  starting out fresh.

I have an ATAPI CD-ROM.  I am sharing a 400 MEG MSDOS partition with a 1 GIG FreeBSD partition and a following NTFS partition of about 2.5 GIG.

Do you have any suggestions?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Clay Antonel
