Hello: I am a UNIX novice!   I tried to install FreeBSD 4.4.   The
results hold some bugs... still.     I purchased a DELL L556cx to operate FreeBSD.   In
installation of the OS from CD-ROM, it found error.   I
looked into the manuals and found not find either them or the
problem fix-it.     I reset the BIOS to default.   It made the three error
msgs on installation.   As follows... BTX loader 100 BTX version 1.01 console: internal video/keyboard /stand/sysinstall running as init on VTY0 These error msgs appeared in light gray.   The accepted
installations appeared in white text. ----------------------- A flash menu appeared with the notice
“Starting Emergency Holographic VTY4.”
It only appeared for an instant... ----------------------- In addition I received a notice that the video terminal in
application during installation was VTY1.   As follows... “You may wish to scroll-lock through the debugging messages
on VTY1 with the scroll-lock feature.”     What is wrong.   How do I fix-it?   Where is a
reference? Thank you for your time and assistance.
