It is possible there could be an H/W issue.. look for it in your kernel startup. Your probably using a IDE drive (wd0 device). Look for errors upon booting up. Also.. email to the list all of your system specs: video card Devices in the box processor type (ie. cyrix, amd, intel) Hard Drive (type) etc.. Also, if you haven't already, delete any devices in your "Default" kernel you don't need (like scsi controllers.. etc.). things should work out... If all else fails.. RE-INSTALL :) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
