Maybe it's a > problem on older machines? My mix is AMD Athlons (1Ghz, 1.2, 1.4, and XP1800+s) and Intel (P4s). Oh, and my IBM T20, which, frankly, is as finicky as a 386 with a pre-ATAPI CD rom ;) I could try booting it on my Sparc Ultra 5, but I expect I know the results ;) How "old" of a system to you want? I may be able to dig up a 486/33 tomorrow AM for testing, but honestly, I expect it'll boot if the CD is good, and theres more than 16MB of rAM. -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-qa" in the body of the message
