I was hoping someone could help me. I have a patitioned disc, with a dual boot, running Windows 2000 professional on C: and Windows ME on D: Whenever I start-up my system with the boot-up floppy disk or try to install form CDROM, b/c my system BIOS supports it I get this on my screen......... Searching for boot record form Floppy..ok /boot.config: -P keyboard: no BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 / The slash is at the bottom of the screen and it just sits there blinking I let it sit for about 40 minutes with nothing else happening. Now what makes this situation strange to me is that if I hit any key on the keyboard duning this start-up process I get this then... Searching for boot record from Floppy..ok /boot.config: -P keyboard: no >> FreeBSD/I386 BOOT Default: 0:fd(0,a)/boot/loader boot: I can type anything I want after boot: on the bottom line, but I don't understand why I get these two different messages and I have not figured out what to do yet. I'm sorry this is long but I've been having a bit of trouble geting this started so far. Thankyou for everyting. J.S.M.
