Content-Type: text/plain Date: Tue, 03 Mar 1998 08:13:09 PST Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi... I have a problem with FreeBSD. I installed it two nights ago. I thought I installed it right, but I can't get pass the boot procedure. What I mean by that is, When I turn on the computer, it boots with default setting, which is kernel, I guess... then it goes through that hardware probing stuff... then at the end it says " can't get root" or something, and prompts" reboots automatically in 15 seconds"... Do you know what I mean?! I have two hard drive and I installed FreeBSD in the second hard drive which is 813 meg. When I Fdisk, I see that both drives are bootale.... I don't understand.... I installed boot easy, but it starts with. F1 DOS F5 Drive 2 Default F5 I see FreeBSD after I press F5, then I see... Please help me as soon as possible!! I can't wait till get my hands on FreeBSD... I've been trying to install this for four straight nights! Thank you very much! ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
