BSD will not boot properly unless i have my installation CD in the CD-ROM. I get the message "filesystem mount failed, startup aborted enter pathname of shell or RETURN for SH" I also have a problems when using XWindows. It does not recognize my mouse, therefore the mouse pointer just sits there. I'm not sure if i'm setting the mouse type in XF86Config to the correct type for looking for the device in the /dev directory. I have a Microsoft Mouse on my Gateway 486DX computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Scott Page spage@freeside.scsd.k12.ny.us
