Prepare boot floppies (incl. fixit floppy), optionally take with you CD with FreeBSD and go to client...

IMO you can face following problems on site: - damaged file system; - corrupted/absent kernel; - problem with boot loader. -- Boris Karnaukh (mailto:bk532@iname.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
