Well, I tried installing without checking the APM package, but the same thing happened; do I need to modify the source code itself to disable the APM option? I have another dual-boot box with a Celeron 466 aboard, so once I pull off the Linux distro, I'll try installing FBSD to that one and see what happens. Thanks again, guys, for all your feedback.
