hi, i am trying to install the freebsd that i donwloaded from the net 
and it locks up at this point:

npx0: INT 16 interface

then just hangs there.  i tried to disable probing npx0: with the -c 
option at bootup but it hangs after saying:

npx0: probe diabled (or something close to that)

what could be the problem?  i am installing it on an ide drive (which it 
found)

thank you,
