Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'd really like to install 
FreeBSD again, and this time it gets 3 gigs instead of one.
I am using the latest boot disk, got it over 30 mins ago. (midnight 
central time) and get it all ready, go to media, ftp site, /dev/cuaa2
(2.2.5 and 2.2.6 could NOT find the modem there, 2.2.7 does so I 
can finally use FreeBSD again) On alt-f2(the errors area) I get a 
"silo overflow" or something like that. I dial in, it seems weird, I only 
get the character before last shown to me when I type, and for 
newlines, nothing until I type something. I backspace it and enter 
my username and password, it tells me PPP connection from blah 
blah to blah blah beginning. The term switches into packet mode 
on it's own, and tells me something like this(forgive my memory)
"NewPhase: Network"
"NewPhase: Authenticate"
for a bit then 
"NewPhase: Terminate"
twice and then hangs up. I haven't had FreeBSD on my home 
system for so long. The error may be my modem, although when it 
worked with FreeBSD 2.2.5(long story) it never gave me that error, 
nor when I user a terminal program in Win95 and Dos. Any 
help/suggestions are appreciated.
