FreeBSD 3.4 in four machines and when we tryed to clean install on these 4.0 we couldn't do it. On newer Pentium IIIs the installation went well but not on the older machines especially these with integrated SCSI controller. I have heard several other people that 4.0 is not installing on alll the machines and they are asking if they should stay with 3.4 move instead to 3.5 or wait for the next release of 4.x nn Christoph Sold wrote: > Darryl Hoar wrote: > > > > Greetings, > > I had a machine running FreeBSD 3.2.
