But it sounds like you have burned an actual physical DVD, which is a different situation. If you're trying to install FreeBSD onto this machine, the procedure would be to boot from that DVD and follow the prompts. If there's anything on this machine you want to keep, back it up first :^) -- Chris Hill chris@monochrome.org
