How much memory do you have? I just upgraded to a PCI motherboard (and 5x86/133) and was waiting for my 30-72 pin memory adapter to come in. With only 4 meg on the board, I got the same error message you're getting. (That part at least.) When I installed my other 4M, it ran fine. I know FreeBSD claims to run under 4 meg, but I certainly couldn't get the installer kernel to do so. If you have 4M, we probably ought to report this to someone. But they don't claim FreeBSD *installs* under 4M, just runs under 4M. :) -- Carl (ravenpub@southwind.net) * The modems canno' stand the strain, captain!
