It's odd that you can't boot off the first diskette but that's not really a problem. There's a bug in the 3.4 install program on the CD and you don't want to use it even if you could. Get the boot and root floppies and boot from diskette. ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-RELEASE/floppies/updates/ boot.flp and mfsroot.flp Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
