System:
  Gateway2000 P-133
  IDE 2.5GB
  NEC floppy disk
  Goldstar CDROM
  80MB RAM (EDO SIMMs)

Problem:
  I have failed to get through the kernel floppy portion of the CD-ROM
installation. I made multiple floppies, which all produced the same
error
you see below. I have a FreeBSD 3.2 box at work that I installed over
FTP.
The kernel floppy from that installation booted two separate machines in
my
office. When I tried it my home box, it failed exactly as first disks
did...

The floppy drive seems OK under Win98 - I can format and use floppies
under
it.

Can anyone help?
