My final year project involves the use of FreeBSD. After following the steps posted on your website I was still not able to install FreeBSD. The installation process reaches the stage of Device Probing and then i get a message that says resetting devices and nothing happens after that point. I have 2 hard drives on my computer one is running XP and the other is formated and ready to install FreeBSD on it(I can do that right?) anyway I've included a list of the IRQ's and the I/O with this email the version of FreeBSD that I'm trying to install is 4.8 Thank you for your help Amer ---MOQ1062378504aba6e7fd3a3258ad660b29d9f17c8cab--
