Brown" Subject: Install boo-boo Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Went through the initial boot from boot.flp, creating a freebsd partion on wd1 leaving wd0 untouched but choosing the bootmanager option. Didn't actually have the distribution but went through the process anyway, perhaps my first mistake? Now when the machine starts I get: NO ROM BASIC, SYSTEM HALTED and hangs. How do I make the boot disk (C:) available again? Tried doing fdisk /mbr to recreate the MBR on the boot disk but no go. Please help. -- Steve Brown System Engineer Cisco Systems - Phoenix
