Hello,
In an effort to get started on FBSD, I have been trying to install the
950210-SNAP. But, my computer ( described below ) will NOT get past the
the probes just prior to the le0 probe ( I forget exactly which probe,
but I do know that it is the probes just before the le0 probe ).
For clarity, when I say that it will not get past the le0 probe, I mean
that the machine hangs infinitely at that point, I must cycle the
power to regain control of the machine. :-(
Can anyone provide me with some insight about this, or should I just
wait for the offical release of 2.1 before installing?
P.S. I have FBSD 2.0 installed, I am just trying to get current,
especailly for the PPP capabilities I have heard about in 2.1.
Machine Description: AMD 386DX-40, AMI BIOS, w/ 8Mb Mem, ~200Mb HD,
Std IDE HD controller, 3.5in 1.44Mb floppy, w/1P & 1S intgreated into HD
controller.

Thank You in advance,
Andy.
