This is my first experience w/ BSD and I am having a little trouble getting going. I am trying to install FreeBSD 4 on a Compaq Proliant PL1600R. It is PII w/ 64M and a 9G SCSI. I am booted with the CDRom and ran through all the instructions as well as followed the written ones in "the Complete FreeBSD" by Lehay. Everything went well until I try to reboot from the HD. I am getting this error: F1 No /boot/loader >>FreeBSD/i386.BOOT Default:0:da(0,a)/Kernel boot: No /Kernel Any guidance would be appreciated. -TomQ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
