Hellow! First of all sorry for my poor English... My computer doesn't have a CDROM drive, so I decided to install Freebsd 5.1 from DOS Drive. I created the directory C:\FREEBSD, copied the contents of the installation CDROM there, then I made two boot diskettes... During bootstrap process the system recognizes my hard drive( ad0 ,Seagate barracuda IV 7200 40 GB) and other my hardware. I create the slices "/","/usr" and 200mb swap, then mount corresponding filesystems. In MEDIA list I choose DOS. Everything goes well until the configuring ends and the message "Last chance !.." appears. After a few seconds the error message "Error mounting /dev/ad0s1 on /mnt: no such file or directory" appears. My hard drive is the "master" on first IDE-cable. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thank you for your attention!
