When posting to FreeBSD lists, please post only in plain text :-( Your mailer sends both text and html mail. It is not necessary. Plain text is fine for the FreeBSD lists. To your problems, now. You probably did not finish the installation. If the installation finishes properly, you will have a kernel to boot. Try reinstalling and let the installation finish (as you posted earlier), and see if it works... If you still have problems, take careful notes of what you do while installing, and post a message with the steps you followed in your installation.
