Hi Martin Are you seeing the error on both machines ? Are you sure the download and burning was glitch free ? If both are failing you could try to install using the bootp method, dependent on what computers you have available to you. I can confirm that I have install FreeBSD sparc64 from CD onto both a V100 and V120's.
