Hi 

I apologize for ask this in the hackers list, but I have looked in the
history mail list in the FreeBSD web site and I haven't found nothing
similar.

I can't start to install FreeBSD 4.0 or FreeBSD 3.8. 

It says: "Can't work which disk we are booting from."

I have a IBM PC 300GL, with Pentiun II (333Mhz), Ram 64Mb and a H.D. IDE
of 3228Mb.

When I start to install FreeBSD 2.5 all run fine, and the installation
is finished without problems.

Can I do?

Thanks for your help.

The following are the complete messages:

BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 101

BIOS drive C: is disk1
