Just did a ftp install of FreeBSD 2.0.5. Pretty neat! Unfortunately I am stuck in an endless loop of boot prograns. The first boot program asks me to choose F1 for dos or F5 for FreeBSD. After selecting F5 I am once again asked to choose a function key: this time it F1 for FreeBSD, F2 for FreeBSD, F3 for FreeBSD, F5 for dos... Well, you get the picture. How do I fix this? Obviously I can boot using the boot pgm on the floppy, but THEN what? I assume that I need to write the boot program out to the FreeBSD boot disk. What is the EXACT command I need to use? I've tried various 'disklabel' commands without success. Thanks, Joe
