Hello,

I'm not sure this is the proper forum for this question, as I just received
my FreeBSD CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, I am very new to all this... as my
question will indicate.

As I said, I just received my CD-ROM, and I made the two floppies as 
instructed, using rawrite.  But when I try to boot my PC using the 
"boot" floppy it just hangs there (and beeps a lot!!!)  Right at the
point where it usually says "starting MS-DOS" (cringe) when I boot from
a DOS disk.

My PC is a 486DX-66, with 16M RAM, 2 SCSI Hard-drives, a 2X-CD-ROM and a 
1.44M floppy.  Does anyone know of any obvious problems (better yet 
solutions to this) that may be causing this ...

Regards,

Stefan Van Rafelghem
