When I boot into FreeBSD, my computer restarts itself and tries to boot into it again. I am running FreeBSD 5.1. Recently I would start the computer, boot into FreeBSD, it would restart itself around where it begins to load loader.conf and then starts to boot up again. After it does that about 2 times it would load FreeBSD. Last night it would not boot into it at all. Do you think it's a hardware problem? Also, when I load KDE it says that it cannot find device/dev/dsp for sound. I tried loading the soundcard by typing kldload snd_sb16.ko but it doesn't seem like that solved the problem. Thanks for the help! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Hotjobs: Enter the "Signing Bonus" Sweepstakes http://hotjobs.sweepstakes.yahoo.com/signingbonus
