You should probably check out http://www.dejanews.com or freebsd.org's mailing list to see what others have done. The only thing I can suggest is to get the latest 2.2.2 (if that's what you're going to install) floppy (there's a newer one at fbsd's ftp site)- and make sure that you don't have any hardware conflicts. It would be helpful, in the future, if you could trace down the exact point in the boot at which the machine seems to have trouble. Good luck. _ _ ___ ______ ______ ______ | | | | / _ \ | __ \ | __ \ / ____ \ | |_| | / /_\ \ | |__| | | |__| | | / \ | | _ | / _____ \ | __ / | ____/ | | | | at javanet dot com | | | | / / \ \ | | \ \ | | | \____/ | http://www.javanet.com/~harpo |_| |_| /_/ \_\ |_| \_\ |_| \______/ On Thu, 7 Aug 1997, Richard G.
