Following up my own message (yes, it's gauche.) What actually happens is that the installer cannot see any disks at all; and when I boot from floppy, interrupt the boot process, and issue an lsdev command, the (installer? second-stage loader? I need a better understanding of the FreeBSD boot process) system crashes, with a BTX error. The disks are an IBM Deskstar 75gxp, 45gb, and a Maxtor Diamond Max Plus 40 40gb. The IBM is formatted NTFS (Win2k), and the Diamondmax has a working FreeBSD system on it, so I know that it's not a problem with the disks. Thanks in advance for any advice, helpful hints, etc. (jfb) -- I predict that within 100 years computers will be twice as powerful, 10,000 times larger, and so expensive that only the five richest kings of Europe will own them.
