I am trying to install freebsd on a TI 4000E laptop.

I made 15 floppies using the fdformat, disklabel, and newfs commands
to make the floppies, then i mouted it on /stiffy and proceeded to copy
all of the files in the /cdrom/bin directory to the floppies
in the order they are listed under xfm filemanager, so no problem
there. i verified that any disk that showed an E when it was formatted
got the big AXE and made a new one.

heres my problem, i boot using the boot disk and select visual
config mode and then select custom install, i then select
the first line that says [ ] binary  (required)
it proceeds to making the slices and then prompts for the first floppy
i put it in and it lights up the floppy led and just sits there, 
forever!

got any clues?

please respond directly i am no on list.
