Hello,

I just recently installed freebsd 4.0 snap from 19990304.

I was able to use mtools package here...

Then I cvsup'd 4.0 current.
made world twice..since egcs is used now...
No problems in compilation... Great...

However, now I am trying to copy a file from the A drive.
just tried to look at the drive first...

> mdir

There is activity for a bit, the light comes on, then nothing....

I wait...

KERNEL PANIC and REBOOT.

If I pull the disk out before I get these errors..

>mdir
fd0c: hard error reading fsbn 0 (No status)
plain_io: Input/output error
init A: could not read boot sector
Cannot initialize 'A:'

I then put the same floppy disk in my other computer
running pre-egcs 4.0 current, and it works.

What's wrong...I will try to send my dmesg output if really
needed...however it will take time..since I have not completely
set the new computer up.

It's a dual pentiumII 450 processors 512 RAM.

Thanks
