I tried it again. I directly moved the directory "c:\3.0-RELEASE\bin" to "c:\bin". However, the problem still remains and I fail again. In addition, in fact, at the begining of my installation, I only copied the files into "c:\FreeBSD\bin" and tried it. I met the above problem. And then I found some explanation in the "ERRATA.TXT" >o DOS partition installs fail to find the installation bits. > >Fix: Rename C:\FREEBSD to C:\3.0-RELEASE and retry the installation. > The naming syntax was changed to make DOS more like the other > types of installation media but the docs on DOS installation > were not updated properly to reflect this. The current sysinstall > now accepts both locations, as it should have to begin with. So, I renamed the directory, but the outcome is the failure. Really hope your further help or any implication. Anyway, thank you very much. Sun Kai To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
