After REMing out the EMM386 line I was able to go to the cdrom from DOG type view and run install without a hitch. Don't forget to have some free space on the disk you are trying to install to. Use fips to create it if there is none. Not much but I hope it can help Keith On Tue, 30 Jan 1996, Prinaya Phansopon wrote: > I am a new user, and I have been trying to install FreeBSD 2.1 by CDROM > but it seem to me that I cannot install it.
