The cd boots correctly and the install works like a charm. However, after finishing the install and attempting to boot the newly installed system, it hands at the "F1 FreeBSD" prompt. Hitting the F1 key (or any other key) simply results in a beep. By booting off of the mfsroot.flp floppy, and then telling it to boot from 0:da(0,a)/kernel, the system boots up normally. I've installed the boot code again via: boot0cfg -v da0 && disklabel -B da0 # flag start chs type end chs offset size 1 0x80 0: 1: 1 0xa5 1023: 70: 27 27 4163697 drive=0x80 mask=0xf options=nopacket,update,nosetdrv ticks=182 This does not fix the problem. I'm continuing to look into this problem. If anyone has any ideas on what I should look at, please let me know.
