This works fine on my laptop with fd drive, but my home system doesn't currently have a floppy drive. It has a LS120 (wfd) drive and the same floppy doesn't work on it. It can't find /boot/loader. I suspect wfd support isn't built into boot2.c yet? Dan Eischen eischen@pcnet.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
