Hello Everyone,

  I've been trying to create the two boot disks for FreeBSD [kern and 
mfsroot] today and for the life of me, cannot. I've done this 
successfully many times before; but now all of a sudden, fdimage refuses 
to work an ANY of the 5 systems I have here. It will not run in any Win9x 
system; it throws illegal operation errors. Under Windows NT, depending 
on the FTP server I got it from, it just hangs or does nothing and quits. 
Under 2000 it doesnt do anything, just returns to the DOS prompt. I have 
tried and downloaded fdimage from ftp through ftp6 [ftp4 doesnt allow 
guest access?] with no success. What is odd is different fdimage files 
from different ftp sites act differently.
  I'm quite flustrated and quite confused. Is there an obvious mistake I 
am making? Because I just dont see it...

Thank you,

- click46
