Hello, I'm trying to install 3.3-R on my Thinkpad 365XD. The install goes quite smoothly, but when I reboot I'm told there is no O.S. on the machine. I thought freebsd was not writing to my MBR so I used my fixit disk and even a couple of MBR utilities, neither of which worked. I tried re-installing windows95, and then installing redhat 6.1 both of which worked fine. Then I tried my freebsd cd's on a desktop and that worked too. Well this is what i discovered. When re-entering the install process I discovered my mount points were lost. That is, the partitions were there but the mount points were unlabeled. I tried to remount so that "UFS N" appears, and then writing that info and rebooting and still I get no OS. Help, please.... anyone! :-) Marwan Fayed To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
