If you are having the exact same panic even after using different floppies then you are having some kind of hardware issue. We'll need to know what versions of FBSD you are installing and more info about your hardware....(like what kind of 3com board and what motherboard and so forth) Josh > /sm > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
