Hello, I am currently trying to install FreeBSD 4.0 on my homebrew machine which has an ABit BE6 motherboard and my only harddrive is a Quantum Fireball Plus-KA 13G ATA/66. I boot from CD and partition my drive (FreeBSD will co-exist with WIn98.) I then let the BootMgr take everything over. I proceed with the rest of the install (install basic software, configure X, etc...) I then conclude the install and reboot. When I reboot, I get the following menu: -------- F1: DOS F3: FreeBSD Default: F1 -------- When I try to press F3 my system will simply produce a beep from the pc speaker. Yet if I press F1 the system will immediatly boot into Windows. Anyone have any clues on what I am doing wrong, or what I could do to get into FreeBSD. Thanks, Andy gregoroa@enc.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
