I have DOS boot sector on my 1st hard-disk, and part of my 2nd hard-disk is used for MS DOS as well. I want to install FreeBSD on the new partition on my 2nd hard-disk. I have two novice dumb questions which I did not find the exact same questions on the postings.... When I used boot.flp, I got the following error message: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0 x 0 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0 x 8: 0 x f018c82d code segment = base 0 x 0, limit 0 x fffff, type 0 x 1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def 32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 1 (swapper) interrupt mask = net tty bio panic: page fault Syncing disks.....done Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort. What is the fatal trap 12? I also tried to used fixit.flp (it has been converted by rawrite), but my DOS could not recognize the disk. I'd greatly appreciate any answer. Thanks M. Wang
