Hi, I am new to FreeBSD with a little experience in Linux and of course have= used Windows. I have installed the Freebsd 4.8 from a CD that I downloaded= and burned. I got the 610mb iso. I am using a boot manager named BootIt and have win2000, linux and other= systems installed. When I installed FreeBSD I set it not to modify my boot manager. Upon my= first boot it booted to the point of a prompt with the words: mount root>= and informed me that i needed to supply a file system and device. What do I need to do to make it boot to a normal command line? I searched= the faq and could find nothing about it in the Install manual either. Thanks, Sperry
