Hi, I've managed to install BSD /once/ before, though it was messy, and gave up on it to continue at a later date (it took me 12 hours and 6 re-installations via ftp to get it semi-correct). The problem I have occurs when the BSD boot manager brings up my selection - the BSD partition will not allow me to boot on it. When I try to select it, I just get a beep from my pc speaker?? It's driving me nuts. I can't remember what I did to fix this.. but it took me song long that when I had actually gotten it running I had forgotten to update the root password... and then everything was hosed. Please be sure all replies are mailed to this address. danke shocker@ionet.net \______AIM: protodome______ICQ: shocker|| I>///<I===========/|_____________________________. || || |**Global Demolitions Expert**| || +++----- +-----------------------------+ || =========================================================+/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
