[-- Attachment #1 --] FreeBSD: I'm having a slight problem with the installation. I have a PIII 733 with 128m of PC133 ram, 10g Western Digital Ultra ATA DMA 66 and 4g Seagate Ultra ATA DMA 33 hard drives, Voodoo3 3000 AGP graphics card and I've been switching back and forth between a Netgear 310 and 3Com PCI NICs. The problem... No matter what release (4.0-Release, 4.1-Release, 4.1.1-Release, 5.0-Current) or what media (CD-ROM or FTP) I use, the install just dies. When the files are being copied...it just dies. There's really no other way to describe it. I watch the debug screen and the system just decides to stop copying. There is no error given. It just stops. The place it was stopping was copying the scontrib dist files. I tried not installing those and it just stops somewhere else. I was running it just fine on a K6-2 500 with a Maxtor 30g drive. I'm really confused. If you can help I would really appreciate it.
