If you were to use lets say FreeSBIE or PC-BSD, what information do you get then? (They are build upon FreeBSD releases). Perhaps the latter step might be required so that we can see what happens at what stage in case we cannot see the startup information from the installation-cd (CD-1) Cheers, Remko -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder ** remko@elvandar.org FreeBSD ** remko@FreeBSD.org /* Quis custodiet ipsos custodes */
