[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, The installation procedure was corrupted some how at some point, try installing again. Ales ----- Original Message ----- From: Laurent Kloeble To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 1999 4:58 AM Subject: installation problems Hello again ! I made the following partition (with 572MB for the beginning) : / 90MB swap 100MB /usr 100MB /var 282MB (all are file system except the second who is swap). I choose minimum Installation (choice number 6 if I remember). All was until this line : 5776384 bytes read from bin dist, chunk 25 of 102@ 940.2 Kb/sec And then came the following message : "Can't find a kernel image to link to on the root file system ! you're going to have a hard time getting this system to boot from the hard disk, I'm afraid." I can boot BSD, do some command as ls or help, but I think I missed something. Can you tell me What ?. Thank you.
