Dear sir/ madam,

The FreeBSD 5.1 PowerPak was purchased from FreeBSD Mall Ref Invoice No: =
3120119. This package has been ordered to develop a FreeBSD Driver for =
PCI Bus Interface. When tried installing, on Pentium P4 2.53GHz, the =
installation fails during installing the package on to the hard disc, =
displaying message e.g. Extracting base into / dir, Panic ufs_dirbad: =
bad dir and ask to reboot the system. After several attempts, I have =
managed to install the minimum installation.

I have tried installing on a Pentium Pro 300MHz PC and it won't let me =
configure the X. When I try to configure the X, the system starts =
rebooting. Would you kindly advise, what should I do?

I have very tight requirement. I need to develop the driver and supply =
to the customer by end of January 2004.

Is this software fully installable? If not, would you please send me the =
updated software a.s.a.p.

Would you please advise a.s.a.p.

Kind Regards
