I have tried to install FreeBSD v. 3.2 on my computer and am receiving an error message that says "PANIC: CAN'T MOUNT ROOT!" whenever I boot up. I tried the sloution suggested in the FAQ, with no success. Also, when booting, I can press the F1 key to get to the boot prompt, but whenever I try to change to a directory, etc., I get a "STACK UNDERFLOW" message. Am I doing something wrong or is my configuration incorrect? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
