I've seen this error before when running applications like cdcontrol. For some reason this package seems to lock the cdrom in a strange way, so that sysinstall doesn't recognise the CD properly. Look for any strange programs that might be doing something to the CDROM device. Stop them and the error will dissapear. :) Cheers, Marc On Fri, Apr 21, 2000 at 06:53:21AM -0400, Kevin Havener wrote: > While installing FBSD4.0 from subject CD set, and after getting to the > point where I wanted to add some packages from CDs 3 and 4, I received a > message from /stand/sysinstall that these two CDs were not FreeBSD CDs. > I went ahead anyway and the packages I wanted from them apparently > installed OK. > > Has anybody else seen such a message?
