I have a problems in getting FreeBSD installed, I've ran into a problem
when i was running the installaion disk, I get the Boot: prompt and then
waited for the menue, I tried to trim down devices that I don't have then
when i was done and ran the kernel I got an error it says

apm0 disabled, not probed

Now, the machine i'm trying to install in is an IBM PS/2 model 77 ( 486DX2
66MHZ with an I/O MCA BUS and a Future Domain Scsi drive with 16mb ram )

I read in one of your manuals that there is no support for MCA bus ( is it
still not suported? ) if so how can i overcome this? I have some unix and
c++ experiance, you think i should go for making my own kernel?

Thanx i would appreciate a response as soon as possible.
