(was problem with 2.0.5 alpha using NFS install) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Mime-Version: 1.0 Sender: questions-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I just wanted to extend my thanks to the people who helped me through the problems with my 2.0.5 install from NFS: julian@ref.tfs.com (Julian Elischer) Michael Smith (msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au) David Kelly (dkelly@iquest.com) Temptation (temp@temptation.interlog.com) To summarize: my boot.flp image was from May 29 or 30. It hung when copying the root.flp image from my nfs server. When I pulled over a new image of 2.0.5 which includes an updated boot.flp image, and created a new boot floppy and used the new image, I was able to install FreeBSD sucesfully the very first time. Thanks again - I got great support! -deborah
