Mann" ReSent-To: questions@freebsd.org ReSent-Message-ID: Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk W.C.CDROM, I installed FreeBSD 3 times. I reserved 500Mbytes for it(D drive), and the first time when I install it (by INSTALL ) the message says the disk is full. The second time even made the PC dead and the hard drive remained spinning. The only thing I can do is turn off the power. The third time, unfortunately , I can't retrive those compressed files after I installed the kernel. It seems that FreeBSD doesn't work stably on my PC. After all of this, I format my hard drive again, while FreeBSD had changed my boot sectors' information or some other system's records. I can't run win95 normally now! The PC is crashed, and the fixit.flp doesn't help much. Do you have any idea about how I can restore my system (low-level format or any other way to do it)? Can I return the CDROM to you and ask refund of it ? Yang Wu
