Ok,

I have got freebsd to get to the point of loading the Kern and MFS floppies
and the graphical install come up. I have done this 3 times and at various
point there after I get the error.

             machine panic possible kernel overflow.

how do I get around this? Is it a know problem?

I'm installing on a noname AXPpci33 running at 166M with 16 parity memory.
No on board cache. I have a SCSI hard drive, but the CDROM is a IDE and is
not getting picked up. I was attempting to install via ppp.

I'm on my way to look for a SCSI CDROM, should I pick up anything else?

TIA

Rod.....
