I have a brand new Dell Latitude CPi and I would like to get FreeBSD up and running. Unfortunately I can get it booted as far as the kernel configuration screen. Once I work through the "conflicts" and then tell it to quit and save the whole machine just locks up with the cursor in the upper left hand corner of the screen. the floppy drive will spin for a moment and then stops cold. Has anyone seen this behavior? Is there a special boot floppy that I should be using? I've had the same behavior with the standard 2.2.6 (from the CD) and 2.2.7 (from ftp.freebsd.org) boot floppies. Any help is apreciated. Thanks! Colin E. Johnson | colinj@unm.edu | http://www.unm.edu/~colinj/ A fabulous reminder that there's more then one way to skin a groove!
