What should I do ? There's a FAQ on it, although I don't think it is very clear: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/troubleshoot.html#BOOTM= ANAGER-RESTORE It should tell you that you need to boot the "live" CD (CD#2), or even the "install" CD (CD #1) first. Then, from the screens there, follow those instructions. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Daemon Dancing in the Dark, a FreeBSD weblog: http://jdarnold.tzo.com/FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
