Try using the version of 2.2.2-RELEASE in the "newser" dir on the server. I had the same problem, and this solved it. I believe the address is ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.2-RELEASE/floppies/newer/boot.flp. Try it out, it worked for me. -Joe Clarke On Mon, 22 Sep 1997, Shin'ichiro Seto/OTESS, Inc. wrote: > Hi! > > I'm new to FreeBSD and trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.2 on a SBC system. > > SBC stands for Single Board Computer that is used for industrial systems. > It has everything on a half size board, IDE, VGA, serial ports, and so on. > I'm actually building a small server for our site. > > If I boot from floppy that is rawited with Walnut CD-ROM 2.2.2, It'll say > crc error when the process is doing uncompress.
