  Subject: installation


  when i was installing FreeBSD i came across a problem, cause whenever my computer switches to the "Probing Devices, please wait (this can take a while)..." it appears to stop.  I allowed it to take it's time for a day and it still just sits there, i was wonder what the problem was, my configuration showed everything without conflicts.  My computer is an IBM Aptiva with the basic stuff installed on it.
