Hi,
I have a Packard Bell E3204 EasyNote with dual boot WXP and Mandrake 9.2.
I need to install FreeBSD 4.8 on it and it doesn't work.
The following message appears on my screen when I start booting on the CD1
install FreeBSD:

Can't work out which disk we are booting from
Guessed BIOS device 0x0 not found by probes, defaulting to disk0
disk0s1 unknown fs 0x1B
disk0s2 unknown fs 0x7
disk0s5 linux swap
disk0s7 ext2fs

Please help me, I really need to install.

Cécile
