Dear Sirs, I have a notebook of NEC PC-9821 Na12/H10. Now i wann install freeBSD on it, so first i made a boot floppies of 3.5"(1.44M),and booted up the computer, and executed all boot files(two floppies),system prompted to insert floppy disk to install OS. Before above work done, i have downloaded bin98.inf and bin98.aa , bin98.ab,.... and in our pure DOS environment, i used FDIMAGE command to copy bin98.inf to floppy disk,and inserted it into floppy drive. but system said "error mounting floppy fdo (/dev/fdo.1440) on /dist: Invalid argument" I didn't know how to proceed further. I can affirm it was ok to boot system before starting installation from floppies, the problem is installation floppies. it should be insert floppy contenting bin98.inf first ? or first inserting floppy contenting bin98.aa? Or is there has any other problems? Thanks for your help in advance!
