Most of the way through the process an error occurs. The screen says something like "if this is repeatable send mail". While it's repeatable (takes about 40 minutes to get there so we only did it 3 times), instead of pausing at this point, the machine reboots so fast after printing this that the message is not easily read. Since it is fairly late in the installation process, enough has been installed to bring the machine up but SOMEthing is not right here. I'm going to try again tommorrow and see if I can note exactly where in the installation proccess this occurs. The box is not out of disk space on any partitions. It's a 256MB 300MHz P-II running the install floppy from the ftp site. /\/\ \/\/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-install" in the body of the message
