This is my final attempt before I try posting to a mail help group :-) Anyway... I am trying to install FreeBSD from CD using the 4.4 CD Image. It boots OK and lets me into the HW Config screen. Here (I've tried several combinations) I disable all the SCSI stuff and all the Network Stuff. When I continue, the installation just hangs. I have tried the 4.3 CD and this gets past the point where the 4.4 CD Hangs, but when it tried to do the actual install it is unable to find the CD. With the 4.4 Install doing a boot -v, I get the output shown below. (Note: The output has been hand typed, not a cut & paste, so it could have a Typo...) ata0-master: success setting UDMA5 on Intel chip Creating DISK ad0 ad0: ATA-5 disk at ata0-master ad0: 28615MB (58605120 sectors), 58140 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S ado: 16 secs/int, 1 depth queue, UDMA100 ado: piomode=4 dmamode=2 udmamode=5 cblid=1 ado: 28615MB [58140/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/md0c md0: invalid primary partition table: no magic start_init: trying /sbin/init start_init: trying /sbin/oinit start_init: trying /sbin/init.bak start_init: trying stand/sysinstall I would be grateful for any suggestions that I may try...
