Hello, I have 3 machines running FreeBSD 2.2.1Release. I have 2 Dell dimension XPSD300 ( Pentium II, 300Mhz) PCs , each with ~6.3GB hard disk. I installed everything well. Both were working fine until today when I tried to reboot one machine after making some changes in the network configuration, and now I can't get past the 'F?' prompt. But the other machine of the same type is working fine even after reboot. I checked your FAQ about this problem but it seems unlikely that there is a problem with the Disk geometry since another machine of the same geometry( same BIOS settings)& the same freebsd(2.2.1) is working perfectly well(from where I am sending this mail). I have another PC which has PPP network interface(for modem). This machine for some reason fails to communicate with other FreeBSD machines through telnet or ftp. In both the cases, it halts after it gets 'connected' and after sometime the connection gets closed. If you want to know any more information in detail, let me know. Thanks.
