Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I installed FreeBSD on my hard drive using a minimum install. I encountered no errors during installation, and, when i start up my computer, i can select "BSD" as my OS. But, i get the prompt "Boot:". When I type "?", i get a listing of the files, but, when i try and type any of those names into the "Boot:" prompt, i get the message "Invalid Format!". What does this mean? Is it a hardware problem? An install problem? Or am i just not using it right? Please help me. Thank you very much. - Jason Wong CodeMastr9@aol.com
