I put it on a 2 gig file server. After that 8 of my mate and I (all with differnent PC's) copied the files over to our systems, and then installed starting with the boot floppy. We ran in to alot of problems, most was not finding a file during the install, one could not find anything. I imaged the same folder structure that was in the handbook on every box, we formated our PC's and did this two more times still with 0 results. Could you please let me know what the secret formula is to install FreeBSD. We are all pretty decent UNIX users and some Admins. We have heard good things about FreeBSD so we thought that we would give it a try and maybe replace our LinuX servers with it, if it is good as we have heard. Thank you. Christian J.W.
