Hello.

I'm trying to install BSD on my PC for the first time and it doesn't work really. My computer is under Windows 98. I did a partition with Partition Manager (http://www.users.intercom.com/~ranish/part/) because FITS doesn't work (Ithink because of W98).

I used the two floppies to start the Install. I did the beginner installation. The programm told me it was some problems and asked to start again. 

When I reboot I've the following screen : 

FreeBSD / i386 BOOT
Default : 0 : wd(0,a) / kernel

Thanks to help me If you can, or redirect ma to web page dedicated to these kinds of problem.
