Hey, I owe a Dell Optiplex GX1 - which i try to install FreeBSD 6.0 or 5.4. When i boot from the CD, BIOS drive CD gets recognized: BTX loader 1.00 ... BIOS CD is cd0 BIOS drive A: is disk0 BIOS drive C: is disk1 then, the bootstrap follows Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x482d70 data=0x81140+0x9cb04 syms=[0x4+0x644b0+0x4+0x7a4fc) Consoles: internal video/keyboard BIOS drive C: is disk0 and here we are: Can't work out which disk we are booting from. Guessed BIOS device 0xffffff not fund by probes, defaulting to disk0: can't load 'kernel' ... OK _ What can i do, that i can install FreeBSD? Can i indicate cd0: on the bootprompt? BTW. i tried it also on 6.0 - same effect... This posting has also been posted on freebsd-current Thanks for your help. Roger
