Well my FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE install went alright, but I think I messed up something when I used FreeBSD's fdisk. My drive slices are set up as follows: Drive 0 slice 1 = 128 MB FAT partition w/MS-DOS 6.22 slice 2 = 1.6 GB FreeBSD (system) Drive 1 slice 1 = 1.7 GB FreeBSD (not mounted yet) Upon startup, the boot manager first prompts me with: F1 DOS F2 FreeBSD F5 Drive 0 Default: F2 F1 and F2 result in the floppy drive running for a second, a beep, and then nothing. F5 results in a new menu being presented: F1 DOS F2 FreeBSD F5 Drive 1 F1 from here successfully boots DOS. F2 from here successfully boots FreeBSD. F5 from here results in the message .....Boot 2>. and the system hangs. How should I go about fixing this? Thanks, - Mike ______________________________________________________________________ Mike Brown / Hyperreal | Director, Hyperreal Music Archive PO Box 61334 | http://www.hyperreal.org/music/ Denver CO 80206-8334 USA | Software Engineer, www.netIgnite.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
