I thought it was perfect. I was wrong. I get a message about the cpu class not being configured (I'm guessing the old Cyrix cpu's didn't fall under 586?) In the handbook, it says that in such a situation, you can fall into single user mode and use the command "boot GENERIC" (or any other kernel of course). However when I do this I get a message like this: Can't boot 'GENERIC', kernel module already loaded Any ideas on how I can salvage this? -Sandro To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
