It will freeze at 4, 7, 9 or 10% every time. I let it go all nighit thinking it might just be "thinking" but it was frozen. At any of those %s the cd rom drive's light just stops going and the Hard Drive light just goes solid. (I tired another cd rom drive, same thing) I am thinking its a different hardware problem. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. ------------------------------------------------------------ IDC Web Site Hosting As Low As Per Month! http://www.theinter.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
