But I got a new laptop computer, a Sony VAIO VGN-BX760 that has a hidden recovery partition. I've tried all my best to install FreeBSD 7.0 on it but when ever I insert the installation CD and it boots from the cdrom, the kernel does not come up. Instead, I got this bunch of digits just scrolling down my screen indefinitely. The laptop came with a windows XP OS and I am trying to dual boot. I want to use the recovery partition for my FreeBSD. > > I'll appreciate your help as soon as possible.

It was fixed by using Disc 1 instead. -Steve [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkkl3PUACgkQ2i3YYzbDt08k3wCePPslcz7SoR2MulmX0scPWSSb E94AniixmrXSYUmUjUpaTuuEcDF3tPfQ =qcx3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
