It didn't = work. I am reluctant to re-install the system because I had to download = it over the internet. We have a slow 14.4 modem, so it took me over 18 = hours just to download it. Please, is there any alternatives? I'm = relitively new to FreeBSD, but I would love to try it out and and weary = of another huge download. I installed FreeBSD 3.0 on my actual second = hard drive, the primary slave drive to be exact. The FreeBSD partition = is the third partition. I need all the help I can get. -cr1148 e-mail at cr1148@earthlink.net ------=_NextPart_000_0008_01BE2B56.7C184620 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=3Dtext/html;charset=3Diso-8859-1 = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D'"MSHTML 4.72.3511.1300"' name=3DGENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=3D#000000 size=3D2>Dear FreeBSD,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=3D#000000 size=3D2> I tried all of = your advice=20 except re-stalling the system.
