Hello,
     I have run into an interesting problem that I cannot seem to get past. Hopefully this is something real simple that I have overlooked!! I have been running FreeBSD on a 300 celeron and I decided to purchase an FIC SD11 mobo with a 650 athlon. I cannot make heads or tails as to why I cannot install FreeBSD??? At first attempt I tried installing 4 (stable) then 3.4(Stable)... On the install whether it was from Cd or from bootable floppies copying the FLP files I could not seem to even load kernel up at all... I left all the Bios setting's factory at first, then I started trying to change the memory configurations in Bios. Still would not load up Kernel... Keep in mind I do not claim to be an expert in any way shape or form but I have installed FreeBSD many times on a couple different system's without any troubles. This one has me puzzled!!!! If you could address this in any way I would greatly appreciate it.

Sincerely,
Scot.
