The situation is: I'm getting the infamous message of "Fatal Trap 12 - Page fault while in kernel mode" while I am trying to install FreeBSD 5.4 (and that also happened then I was trying to install 5.3 to the same machine before, I don't remember how I solved it) to an IBM Pentium 100 machine, 32 RAM. This box has no support for CDROM boot, then I have made the three boot floppies from the 5.4 floppies on FreeBSD ftp. I downloaded the archives (I'm at a Linux Slack 10.1 now), then: #dd if=3Dboot.flp of=3D/dev/fd0 And did it with the two another files. Ok, then I booted the machine with the boot floppy, then kern1.flp, kern2.flp, and then boot.flp again. No matter what option I choose on FreeBSD boot menu (the one with the ASCII daemon), I get the following Trap 12: ------------------------------------ (Last line from dmesg before trap 12) vga0: at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address =3D 0xe fault code =3D supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer =3D 0x8:0xc0626d48 stack pointer =3D 0x10:0xc1020bc8 frame pointer =3D 0x10:0xc1020bc8 code segment =3D base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b =3D DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags =3D interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL =3D 0 current process =3D 0 (swapper) trap number =3D 12 panic: page fault Uptime 1s Automatic reboot in 12 seconds - press a key on the console to abort --------------------- What should I do? Thank you in advance! Silvio
