g'day all,
                could anyone help me with installing freebsd 5.0 on my old pc9020 laptop? i boot of the install floppies, it detects my pcmcia network card i have installed, i get to starting my install and i get a message saying " no disk installed!, check to make sure your disk controller is being probed properly" or something very similar to that. I have windows installed on it right now and that boots fine.. the hd is detected in the bios correctly, i have sound, apm and the touch pad disabled in the bios.
so can ANYONE, help??? 

cheers
