Hi,
While trying to install freeBsd, I am getting following errors:
"Unable to transfer the bin distribution from fd0, do you want to try to
retrieve it again"
Steps I followed are:
1 kern.flp
2 mfsroot.flp
3 kernel configmenu: visual mode
4 quit and save
5 /stand/sysinstall Main menu: standard
6 FDISK partition editor: A(Use Entire Disk) + Q(quit and save)
7 Install boot manager for drive ad0: standard
8 Free Bsd disklabel editor: A(uto defauly\s) + Q(finish)
9 Choose Distributions: Esc, esc, esc
10 choose installation media: Floppy
at this point I could see some out put like, doing newfs -b 8192 -f 1024
/mnt/dev/ad0*
11 Please insert floppy in floppy drive unit a: floppy having first 5
binaries, a:\bin\bin*
At this point I am getting above error.
I am using "hp brio ba210" H/W, which supports following features:
Microtower model, Intel
Celeron™, 533MHz, 64MB
128KB, 4.3GB, 40X IDE,
integrated 8MB, 56K V90 PCI
ROCKWELL, WIN98
Can any one suggest the installation process, looking for your help.
Thanks & Regards
