Hi I have seen in the archives that a number of people have had similar trouble as I am experiencing. Each time I try and load 4.2 on a machine that happily installs 4.1 it hangs at the line plip0: <PLIP network interface> on ppbus0 I have installed 4.2 onto the same HDD on another machine with no worries, and for thre sake of it I put a clean install with a generic kernel into the machine and it still hangs at the same point My configuration is a Gigabyte BX dual processor mainboard. I have changed every other piece of hardware in the machine from standard NE2000 to PCI realteck and intel network cards. I have changed the RAM 3 times as well as the HDD's. Given that the same machine happily installs 4.1 and that I have changed all the hardware except the main board I was wondering if anyone had experienced the same problem and found a solution Thanks in Advance Tim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
