My name is Andrew, and I am trying to install FreeBsd 2.2.2 stable on a 486 33Mhz system. It has a network card and a scsi bus system. The problem I am having is configuring Freebsd to access the ethernet card. It does'nt appear to have a problem with locating the card installed with the proper addr/io/irq settings. But I cannot proceed through the CONFIG-NETWORKING-INTERFACES section of the /stand/sysinstall program. It persistently tells me that my IP address is incorrect. What am i doing wrong, or where can I simply add the IP of my choice in a config file and just get it over with once and for all!!!! Also, I am trying to install a second scsi disk. I cannot find any info in the handbook on how to format the disk with freebsd and then mount it..... I'm obviously no UNIX guru. But I have had some sysadmin experience on HPs. But that doesn't seem to help here. Anyway, thankyou very much for your time. Lost in FreeBSD, Andrew Reedhome | help
