Sorry haven't gotten ANY messages from Freebsd-questions which is
wierd...cause usually I'm flooded...So I'm reposting.

tried someones idea of typing "boot" but to no help...

I have a clean 2.1G drive and it's a p-133 it doesn't have duel partitions
or anything...I want to dangerously dedicate this machine to FreeBSD.

The prompt is:
>> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default:  0:fd(0,a)/kernel
boot:

As I stated below I have tried /kernel, /kernel.gz, /mfsroot, /mfsroot.gz,
and now I have tried boot, show, and ?
all I get is:
No kernel
No mfsroot
No Show 
No Boot
or Invalid format


Thanks
SAsha
