The flopy works great and install works well until I get to the fpt section. At this point, I'm not sure what to put into the ppp info screen. I have an isp that has no Unix Shell access, just a regular PPP account. Since it's a dialup, my ip is assigned dynamicly. Anyway, here's a sample of the info I put into the boxes: host : fast.net domain : fast.net dns : (whatever my DNS # is ...i don't remember it right this second) for gateway, I don't know what to put and for the ip, I put 0 anyway... I get to the terminal screen and dial up my ISP ok, then I enter my user name and password and get to PPP where it gives me my ip address. At this point, I press Alt-F3 oto get back to the installer and I immediately get an error that the ftp site can't be found. I was wondering if : a) I'm doing something wrong in the setup? b) I can ftp the files on another machine and put them onto my machine on an NT NTFS drive (I'm trying to set up a dual boot) c) the dual boot thing will work ok with the NT boot selector... thank you, and if you need any other information, please let me know... thanks -- vincef@fast.net http://www.users.fast.net/~vincef -- vincef@fast.net http://www.users.fast.net/~vincef To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
