Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I STILL can't boot my system. I've created the boot.flp for 2.1 AND 2.0.5 and neither will boot.. my system will just hangs with NO output whatsoever. Even the three-finger salut doesnt work. I can boot DOS on the floppy drive so the floppy drive isnt the problem. Both the 2.1 and 2.0.5 boot disks I made boot another computer I tried them on so the boot disks arent the problem. After that I pulled ALL nonessential cards from my system right down to the serial port card, with NO change. the system still hangs with NO output. My system consists of: CPU: 486DX2-66 RAM: 8 BIOS: AMI dated 11/11/92 SCSI host adapter: DTC 3270VL Video Adapter: Diamond Stealth 24 VLB It's a cheap clone from some company called Vektron. I've even tried kicking the system to no avail :). Please.. any help will be appreciated. Thank you, AMB --
