Hi Scott, thanks for your fast suggestions. The second one helped, as the 'Load KLD' tells me that he can't find my floppy (strange as I booted from it..) He says: 'No floppy devices found! Please check...' and 'Unable to set media device to floppy'. :-( The webinst over http-proxy seems to work now (still running) unlike the 4.6.2.
