As of 4.2R the boot from install CD and various 4.2 versions of floppies all fail during the hardware check (after ppc0 - if ppc is disabled, it fails after sio and so on). This has been tried on more than one machine, hardware-wise different from each other. The same happens with the 4.2BETA floppies. >How-To-Repeat: install from media, rather than upgrade from older release >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
