[-- Attachment #1 --] Gentlemen: I have been trying to install Freebsd without success.After learning I had some hardware problems and adjusting them I finally got the boot disk to work properly. I have tried to follow the directions using option #5 for a Novice installation, I inserted the wrong floppy and can't get to the point again where I can start installing again. The directions may be clear to some people but they don't much help a greenhorn like myself. They don't exactly tell you when and how ; making your own kernel, how to set up the hard disk; etc.I am tired of using Windows 95 due to several unexpected crashes. Any suggestions or ideas. Thanks Gerald Beisch [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=text/html;charset=iso-8859-1 http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content='"MSHTML 4.71.1712.3"' name=GENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT size=2>Gentlemen:</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>I have been trying to install Freebsd without success.After learning I had some hardware problems and adjusting them I finally got the boot disk to work properly.
