I am trying to install FreeBSD 2.0 on a TI4000 DX2/50 Notebook. It has 8 megs of ram and a 200 meg hard drive. I also have the docking station, which has an Adaptec SCSI card, NEC 2X cdrom, Fujitsu 540MB HD (SCSI of course). I also have an Sound Blaster AWE32. It might seem to many that my problem is the docking station, however the same problem seems to exist if I use the notebook undocked as well. hmmmm ... I seem to have neglected to tell you my problem ... ok I put in the first disk for cd installation and it cranks away and finds everything, all my hardware that is .... :-) ... something linux only wishes it could do ..... BUT then after stating it is going to switch the size of the 'd' partition it just sits there. It is not locked because if I remove the disk it claims that it cannot mount the root partition and reboots the machine. once again I get this problem whether or not I am docked .... please help !!!!! I am frustrated ... thanks, James Wallace jwallace@morpheus.hartford.edu
