Rogers@Home expects you to send your hostname with your DHCP request. But, sysinstall doesn't let you set up a hostname for your interface, so Rogers' DHCP server never respond to your queries. AFAIK, the only way around this is to download FreeBSD to another machine on your LAN and then install from the local copy (hand-configuring your NIC) and then set up the Rogers@Home stuff after. -- Matthew Emmerton || matt@gsicomp.on.ca GSI Computer Services || http://www.gsicomp.on.ca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
