Hi Folks,

I'm new to FreeBSD, so maybe this is not a bug, but rather
a problem with me.  Nevertheless, in the interests of getting
some feedback for you...

I've just downloaded the latest snapshot (1005), and have
encountered two problems.

In the Express install sequence the decriptions of the
commands at the bottom of the partition (not label) screen
are not visible.  I have tried this on a notebook with
a VGA clone colour screen, and on a ald style MGA, with
similar results.

Also, when I get past this screen (by remebering the
commands I used for a 2.0.5 install a few days ago), I
am unable to complete a DOS partition install because
the root.flp file cannot be found.  The file does exists,
in the c:\FREEBSD\FLOPPIES directory, as I think it
should, but the install programs just can't find it.

Cheers, Dieter.
