First diskette in ... second diskette .... then it asked for the boot diskette again (boot.flp). Guess what happens then... loading required module 'pci' [ spinning baton for five minutes ] Then we get to the menu with the little FreeBSD demon, and we hit ENTER to take a default install. ACPI autoload failed - no such file or directory And the machine hangs. Just like our heads ... in despair. :-( D. --------------------------------- Découvrez un nouveau moyen de poser toutes vos questions quelque soit le sujet ! Yahoo!
