But, my computer ( described below ) will NOT get past the the probes just prior to the le0 probe ( I forget exactly which probe, but I do know that it is the probes just before the le0 probe ). For clarity, when I say that it will not get past the le0 probe, I mean that the machine hangs infinitely at that point, I must cycle the power to regain control of the machine. :-( Can anyone provide me with some insight about this, or should I just wait for the offical release of 2.1 before installing? P.S. I have FBSD 2.0 installed, I am just trying to get current, especailly for the PPP capabilities I have heard about in 2.1. Machine Description: AMD 386DX-40, AMI BIOS, w/ 8Mb Mem, ~200Mb HD, Std IDE HD controller, 3.5in 1.44Mb floppy, w/1P & 1S intgreated into HD controller. -- Thank You in advance, Andy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Whitcroft N9KWS, Software Engineer FBSD Lives!
