I am trying to load FreeBSD from a DOS partition. I copied the dists and floppie directories to the DOS partition, in a directory called freebsd. The partition I am trying to load to is 270 meg. The hard drive is IDE. I have tried numerous times but always get an error that reads: Failed to load the ROOT distribution. Please correct this problem and try again. I also tried loading from a boot floppy, but it hangs up. I have an IDE cdrom. Any ideas?
