I heard from some other FreeBSD users that my computer may be incompatible, which I have found out was untrue and FreeBSD should work on my without problems. Before and ever since that I have heard that, FreeBSD v2.1.7 has not installed on the system. It does load to a point and receive various errors: * missing files or permission denied while loading from the cd-rom's * missing kernel routines or distributions from the cd (filename.tgz files) * debugging mode not permitted to run on this version. * can not create user profile (when the install.txt file tells you need to create a profile for yourself) * system lock ups when loading FreeBSD v2.1.7 which errors stating that kernel has errors or damaged operating system. and so on witht the errors. I have spent the last 1-2 weeks trying to load this operating system which seems not want to load on my system. I remember reading on the web page that there is a 30-day money back guarantee, hassle free. I would like send this cd-rom set back (FreeBSD v2.1.7) and receive my money back since it has taken up so much of my time, and getting no where. I hope that this message is not ignored like the rest of my support e-mail messages that I have written for assistance. Thanks, Mark Knipfer President of Adam Computer Services mailto: adam@choice.net
