You basically need to make the boot floppies (it sounds like you haven't done this yet). You can download the floppy images mfsroot.flp and kern.flp at ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/3.1-RELEASE/floppies/. The installation section of the Handbook (see above) explains what to do with these, and what to do next. -charon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
