I made multiple floppies, which all produced the same error you see below. I have a FreeBSD 3.2 box at work that I installed over FTP. The kernel floppy from that installation booted two separate machines in my office. When I tried it my home box, it failed exactly as first disks did... The floppy drive seems OK under Win98 - I can format and use floppies under it. Can anyone help? _____________________ Eric Saylor Seanet Technical Support _____________________ Disk error 0x4 (lba=0x10) Disk error 0x4 (lba=0x10) No /boot/loader >>FreeBSD /i386 Boot Default: 0:fd(0,a) /kernel boot: Disk error 0x4 (lba=0x10) No /kernel >>FreeBSD /i386 Boot Default: 0:fd(0,a) /kernel boot: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
