From what I can understand about this, i have some sort of hardware problem, but I'm not sure what it is. Basically, I can get it to go through the install, but I sometimes get kind of wonky things when I try to install a package. I get a a "fatal trap 12: page fault in kernel mode." Then the machine reboots. I have been tearing my hair out over this for the past 2 days. I've tried switching hard drives, I've made a new boot disk,I have disconnected and reconnected everything inside that computer at least a dozen times. Please help me. I mean, unix can't be THIS frustrating thanks alissa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
