It hung about 3% of the way in so I rebooted. Now, in trying to re-install, the system cannot detect my CDROM drive on a old 486 for which I have no supporting dox/driver info. Booting the system just takes me to the boot prompt; All attempts to use install from CDROM yields a "No CDROM detected error." Any advice on how to resume this, my first FreeBSD install? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
