After the POST finishes, the machine attempts to load the FreeBSD boot loader from the CD to start the install, but instead simply reboots. I'm not too sure if this is the correct place, but I felt it more correct than freebsd-questions. Thanks, (Please CC me in any replies since I'm not subscribed via this address, since the FreeBSD mail server eats e-mails sent from my subscribed address). -- Cheers, Chris Howells -- chris@chrishowells.co.uk, howells@kde.org Web: http://chrishowells.co.uk, PGP key: http://chrishowells.co.uk/pgp.txt KDE: http://www.koffice.org, http://printing.kde.org, http://usability.kde.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
