Hi, I have several machines running 3.2/2.2.8/2.2.5 so on, and
theses systems have Asus and Boardrunner mother boards.
I have a 2.2.8 system with a Boardrunner mvp3/586b mother board
IDE 4gig, 128 meg of mem, S3 Virge vid. and it will not boot
FreeBSD 3.X from the floppy/cdrom. FreeBSD 2.2.X, and
Linux/dos/windoze(nt/98/95) will all boot from the floppy/cdrom,
but not FreeBSD 3.X. Looking back, this appears to be my first
Boardrunner going to 3.X.
I'm comfortable with doing an update, except that if I have to
emergency recover the system, then I am stuck. I have not yet
tried the update.
I have experimented extensively with the BIOS, and have updated to the
latest version, still no joy.
Any and all help would be appreciated.
A.G.
