I am a complete novice at UNIX and have some expirence with DOS and PC
hardware. I have come accross some problems with installing Free BSD can you
help.
1: Making the floppies. I could not get these to make properly in a 486
DX" with a
CMD technology Quickie IDE card. I kept getting head overun erorrs.
Moved to
a Trigem 4DX2 no problems. What could have con wrong.
2. I have a Future Domain CDROM TMC-850 (TMC950 Chipset compatible). When
I
try to install the bindiste ect I get an error saying cd0a not found
and when I alt f1 it
tell me that mount cd_9660 failed due to a configuration proble. having
checked
around the FreeBSD FAQ I find others in the same problem. What can I do
to fix this.
At the moment I copied the CD to Hard disk and installed from there,
but I would like
to do it from the CD.
Thanks in advance.
