I tried to install FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE on a Pentium 90 with 16 MB RAM a few weeks ago. The BIOS wasn't able to boot from CD and while I could boot from floppy disks, FreeBSD would reboot after loading the third one. I assume the kernel and the installer were to heavy for the amount of memory. To solve the problem I put the hard drive in a more powerful system, installed FreeBSD, compiled a small kernel without any modules and put it back. Of course the system isn't fast, but it works. mount_nfs would panic the system, but there's a workaround (and some more information about my system) in: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3Dkern/94830 Fabian --=20 http://www.fabiankeil.de/ --Sig_UrBQADej6mWmgB/jW9mj1q8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFEgA40jV8GA4rMKUQRArr7AJwIW1D+ky5KnctNgYZF/DTvNd6vrwCgoqc6 vA1eQj/FSPGTWuaFs9u0ZzE= =p+DR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_UrBQADej6mWmgB/jW9mj1q8--
