When trying to install Freebsd 4.6 via CD on my old Dell desktop it stalls on the "Probing port, please wait (this may take a while)..." window. Hitting alt -> F2 I see that the the system hangs each time at the line "DEBUG Can't open PC-card controller /dev/card0." The system is not a laptop. Any help is appreciated. The CDs with FreeBSD handbook cost me $70. I'd hate to find out it won't work on this system. The computer sytem: 200MHz Pentium MMX Mini Tower 64 MB ram Video card: Matrox Millenium PCI Video Board w/4 MB WRAM Hard Drive: 3.2GB EIDE hard drive Iomega Zip Drive CD Rom: 12-16x EIDE CD-rom NIC: asante nic-pci Modem: US robotics x2 telephony 33.6/56k
