I need some help getting my FreeBSD 3.4 set up. I purchased the CD-ROM set from Walnut Creek CDROM. Now, I have had this software for a while and haven't had any luck. I may need some help from the very beginning. I have a IBM PS/1 (486) computer with a two home installed items, which are 3 1/2" drive and a Creative Quade speed MPC2 CD-ROM and Soundblaster. It doesn't find the CD-ROM drive when I have tried an boot install from floppy. So far, I have only tried to install the boot manager and xcopy over the bin and dist files. I can't get it to boot up though (while having DOS and Windows 3.1 also on my hard drive) Can you help me?
