Hi, ** yesterday I want do install FreeBsd 3.4. I came to the kernel configuration ** menue . I switch to the full screen visual mode. I get 13 conflicts. If I ** changed an addressnumber(0x340) I could edit but not save the new value only ** leave the window without saving. You should just press [del] on all the items you do not have. Keep the IDE/ESDI controller, PS2 mouse, console, keyboard etc....... Ignore PCI - They're auto-detected. Then press [q] to exit. It should ask you to save. Select [y]. Make sure there are no [CONF] labels up anywhere as this may not work then. ** The partition was ok till I came to the ** Installation Medium Menue where I want to install from CD-Rom. I started but ** it came a window with 'signal 11 was caught.' it rebooted, but at the ** message 'boot F1 Freebsd' I had no kernel. I searched in the book for ** failures and found, that the kernel found an ATAPI cdrom. Therefore I need ** help from you. I want to change to FreeBSD because in the 3.4 is PPPoE ** included and it should be a fine UNIX. Before I had Linux running. This is a bug with the installation program (sysinstall). You can solve this by downloading new disk images (MFS Root disk) from ftp.freebsd.org. Read the Errata.txt file in the /pub/FreeBSD/3.4-RELEASE directory and get the new mfsroot.flp file from floppies/update. This wont crash then :-) Then Re-install the system. It will also install properly and your system will work OK out of the box (again)! ** Prozessortyp: Intel CPU Pentium II ** Motherboard: Intel AL 440 LX ** RAM: 32 MB SDRAM 10ns ** disk: Quantum Bigfoot 4,3 GB ** Foppydisk: 3,5'' Mitsumi ** CD-ROM: Hitachi 24 maX CD-R 8335 ** ** Grafikcard : 4 MB S3 Virge DX ** Soundcard : Yamaha OPL 3 Sound System ** Mouse: Mitsumi PS/2 ** Keyboard: Mitsumi PS/2 Hardware is ok! ** Mayby you can help me.
