I have version 4.6 and 4.8 of FreeBSD and I am having trouble getting pass a certain point. This is the procedure I have followed form The FreeBSD Handbook, 3rd Edition, Volume I: User Guide Edited by Murray Stokely and Chern Lee. I boot for the CD and start form Start kernel configuration in full-screen visual mode. Then Press X Then delete: Advansys SCSI narrow controller Adaptec 154 X SCSI controller Adaptec 152 X SCSI and computable sound card Buslogic SCSI controller Then press Q Save these parameters before exiting YES While loading the sysinstall it freezes up when it reaches sio0: type 8250. The book shows type 16550A The computer I am trying to install FreeBSD on is an AMD 700 Mhz maching with 512 K of memory. Nothing else on the hard drive. It will be a stand a lone computer once I get FreeBSD installed. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Joe Joe Parker kb4ih@earthlink.net Why Wait? Move to EarthLink.
