Does anyone know what I can do differently? Hm, what happened exactly? Did you replace Linux by FreeBSD? Did you add FreeBSD? Or did you zero your whole disk and start with FreeBSD installation from scratch? If the latter and you try now to install BeOS under the Linux emulation, I would suggest to ask your next buddy with an installed BeOS to create an installation CD for you (nice feature of BeOS, you donīt need anything, just your installed system). Else you could do this from a windows machine (install BeOS on a win partition, then create the installation CD). Maybe the best solution: Buy the professional version of BeOS. You will get some additional goodies, e.g. encryption within your web browser, which is quite useful for some purposes.
