It has the following major components: PIII 500mhz 128 mb Ram nVidia Riva TNT2 Ultra VGA 48x CDRom 3Com 3c905c-TX The install seems to go along fine, but then, while probing devices, it seems to freeze. The last thing on the debug screen is: =========================== DEBUB: ioctl(3, TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (success) rm: not found DEBUG: Found a network device named xl0 DEBUB: Found a network device named lp0 ================================ I'm a big fan of FreeBSD, but our company is primarily a Dell shop, and this one really has me puzzled.
