If you could be a little more helpful in explaining just what kind of =
problem you are having, I'm sure that either I or someone else on the =
would be happy to help you as best we can. =20
For right now, have you tried creating the boot floppies and using =
those during the installation?

Subject: FreeBSD 4.2 Reboot Computer during installation prob
Having trouble getting FreeBSD to initialize setup on my 200MHZ =
computer. Every time it gets to the boot load part to start the =
installation it will either lock up my computer or will keep rebooting =
it. I'm doing the installation with booting from CD. So I figured maybe =
I got a bad cd so tried it on my 450MHZ under VMware and installed =
FreeBSD with no prob, except for the fact it didn't like my network card =
so I just disabled that. Would use it under the VMware but I also like =
to use a graphical interface as well and without having the network card =
working it can't connect to the net from my DHCP server. So there is no =
way I can load the vmware-tools for it. If no one can figure out the =
prob why the 200MHZ is doing what it is, then could someone tell me how =
to read the vmware-tools from a floppy disk and copy it to the hard =
drive under VMware.

Thanks,
Joe
