Date: Mon, 06 Mar 2000 16:23:16 PST From: "Boaz Klappholz" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" Reply-To: boazk@efn.org X-Mailer: BeOS Mail [R4.5] Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings, My problem: Initial booting hangs using two tested boot disks. I see: Searching for Boot rEcord from Floppy..OK /boot.config: -P Keyboard: no BTX Boot loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 then it hangs. The machine is: AMD k7-700 on a SD11 MB from FIC 256 megs of PC100 ram 15.2 gig Maxtor drive ATA-66 some standard IDE floppy A NEC CD-Rom drive, IDE STB Velocity 128 AGP video card Intel EtherExpress 10/100 NIC Now I've seen FreeBSD run on a K7 before, so I'm hoping that it's not a MB prob. I notice it doesn't detect the keyboard, though if I stick in the mfsroot floppy (which I did on accident once) it readily recieved KB input. Anyhow, any and all help would be most appreciated.
