My intent is to = ftp FreeBSD=20 down to my system. I am currently running MS-DOS and have been = attempting to=20 make a boot disk. I downloaded the 2 files for that, entered the = commands, the=20 floopy was formated, etc. I rebooted the computer. What I was faced with = then=20 was a line stating the file boot.config could not be found, then a line = stating=20 that boot.help could not be found, then a couple of lines about FreeBSD = and A:=20 drive.

Then the prompt came = up, followed by=20 boot:

Then the statement that = the kernel=20 could not be found.

Then all I got was a = continious cycle=20 between boot: and the kernel missing message.

Uh....what is it trying = to tell=20 me?
