I am currently running = MS-DOS and have been attempting to make a boot disk. I downloaded the 2 = files for that, entered the commands, the floopy was formated, etc. I = rebooted the computer. What I was faced with then was a line stating the = file boot.config could not be found, then a line stating that boot.help = could not be found, then a couple of lines about FreeBSD and A: drive. Then the prompt came up, followed by boot: Then the statement that the kernel could not be found. Then all I got was a continious cycle between boot: and the kernel = missing message. Uh....what is it trying to tell me? Thanks, Curt ------=_NextPart_000_0000_00000004.01BE17D2 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=3Dtext/html;charset=3Diso-8859-1 = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D'"MSHTML 5.33096490.89251448.12071"' name=3DGENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial size=3D2>Hi,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial size=3D2> My intent is to = ftp FreeBSD=20 down to my system.
