My first FreeBSD install; got the whole kit, read the docs, used what I thought was the best hardware: Intel L440GX+ Mother board (built-in Adaptec AIC-7896) 3 x IBM 9.1GB LVD UW SCSI drives Generic IDE CDROM The hard drives are set as SCSI ID's 2, 3 and 4, with the last one terminated via the drive's jumper. I managed (after a lot of screwing around with termination, and connector order, etc) to get to the fdisk screen, define the partitions, but as soon as I try to install after selecting my distribution (developer) and calling for the CDROM install, I get: "panic - going nowhere without my init!" At this point I'm wildly speculating that maybe I need a good, internal active terminator. Any and all clues appreciated! James Smallacombe PlantageNet, Inc.
