After I saw it was 19 disks...I cancelled, and decided to download later. I ended up downloading those files from windows...and saved them in my msdos partition where I installed FreeBSD 2.2.6. in the /src directory. Now when I go back into sysinstall...I go through the same install procedure as before however, this time when I tell it to commit data to the disk....(where it started downloading last time) it just goes to the screen where it asks me if I want to do any last minute configuration before exiting. But it installs nothing. I did point the install to my msdos partition. Do I have to delete something it did on my previous install...so it won't think its installed already? The link /sys does exist now...when it didn't before. But there is hardly anything there. Help...please... Please reply also to thiel@genevaonline.com :) Thanks, Loren Thiel thiel@genevaonline.com ICQ: 1117658 Give your computer something to do when it would normally just be sitting idle....
