I am installing from a boot floppy and a CD.  I do not have DOS on the 
system.  I have one IDE HD (1.2Gig).  The controller is built-in to the 
motherboard.  It is a new motherboard with a Trident chipset and a PnP 
AMI BIOS.  I am trying to install FreeBSD 2.1.5 from the Walnut Creek 
CD.  When the system boots, it says : mcd0: Timeout getting status.  I 
don't know if this has anything to do with my problem.  If you need any 
more info, let me know.  Thanks for the help.
Jason
