I recently purchased the "FreeBSD Handbook" that
comes with FreeBSD 4.1 from Walnut Creek CDROM. I
installed it according to the instructions and
configured X-windows, etc. Everything seemed to go
Ok but when I tried to reboot, it started to load
the kernel, I got the copyright message and then
the following error message:
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0xbf57e4c
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
. . .
The machine then stops.
I am using a Dell 233 MHz Pentium with 128 MB of
RAM. I installed FreeBSD in a primary partition on
the last 2 GB of a 4.3 GB Western Digital hard disk
(disk no. 3).
Can anyone help with this?
