Hello hackers, I wrote to @questions, but as result, I have advised to address the help to you. Sorry, if I spend your time I have notebook IP-120MHz without FDD He is NOT BOOT from CD. How can i install FreeBSD on it? Hardvare configuration: Compaq 5280 Intel Pentium 120MHz 80Mb RAM 4,3 Gb HDD Hitachi CD-ROM -8x Panasonic (I CAN NOT boot from it) NO able boot from LAN, NO FDD, 2,5" HDD - I can't connect this HDD to desktop and install FreeBSD on it. I try to load a kernen from DOS-partition usin "bsdboot.com kernel", but it have called a panic because of impossibility to mount root partition BUT I read in file /tools/00_index.txt (line 1): setup.exe Prepare for installation from a DOS partition. I hope it help me, but I can not FOUND IT - I can't found setup.exe in the installatoin CD-ROM, in the ftp-server on freebsd.org Where I can found this utilite??? Whether there is any other way of installation? How can i install FreeBSD? -- Best regards, àÒÉÊ mailto:YGB@mail.ru P.S. Sorry for my English.
