Anyways one of my uncle's gave me an older computer and i decided to turn it into a FreeBSD box, but have been having some extreme problems simply installing it. The install looks like its going ok until it gets to cd9660: Rockridge Extension where it hangs until i hit alt-f2 where it makes me choose a distribution and then says the install failed. The computer is an AST Advantage! 9304. It's a cheesy old Pentium 133. The hard drive was broken so i bought a new 20 GB Western Digital HD The computer has the following installed: 8x ATAPI CD-ROM Torison? 20GB Western Digital EIDE HD Model WD200ABRTL Netgear Ethernet ISA Card Model EA 201 Floppy Drive Logic Chipset: Intel 430 HX IDE Controller: Intel 82439HX (PIIX3) Super I/O Controller: National Semiconductor PC87306B I don't have any scsi controllers so i have been taking them off the visual kernel thing, i also have that onflict between the pc board and the ethernet adapter. After device probe i get the following DEBUG messges: DEBUG: ioctl(3, TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (success) DEBUG: Can't open PC-card controller /dev/card0 DEBUG: Add mapping for /dev/cuaa0 to s10 any help would be greatly appreciated Matt Rice mjr7893@rit.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
