1). the new 3.0-R is fantastic! Great job to everyone involved
2). I have a Aptiva E-26 that I have FreeBSD 3.0 installed on.
With the bios set to boot from cd, I am trying to install 3.0-R onto a new
HD. The problem is that for some reason, it can't find the kernel. This is
what I have tried: 1:wcd(0,a)kernel, 1:wcd(0,c)kernel, 0:wcd(0,c)kernel,
1:cd(0,c)kernel. Nothing that I type will work so that I can use the cd
rather than a boot floppy. I have checked the maillists, the man pages,
the FAQ and Handbook. So far, the answer has eluded me.
What am I missing?
3). I had to try several times to get /stand/sysinstall to work after the
"probing" when I installed FBSD on this HD. For some reason, the probe
really messes with input from the keyboard. Whatever key I hit while in
/stand/sysinstall, brings up a small window asking if I really want to
quit. I checked the errata, but found nothing on this. Is this just my
machine?
Thanks for your help!
Mike
