Each time the burn finishes ; it freezes up my MacBook pro. When I then eject the new disk and attempt to insert it into my powerbook it comes up with a screen of all sorts of error messages and freezes up my power book. I'm a low budget guy so spending $35 on a dvd isn't in my budget right now. My PowerBook Just has a read drive in it right now so I'm guessing burning the image with my MacBook Pro "Intel" 64 bit computer is the problem ? Is there a better way to attempt to get an install of FreeBSD installed on my PowerBook ? Am I using the wrong release ? Thanks for any help !
