Hi,

Whe I'm installing FreeBSD in a 486 PC. After loading files from an FTP =
machine and enterred the root password, the machine automatically =
restart. The screen shows:=20

F1...BSD
Default: F1
F!...BSD
Default: F?

From there I cannot go anywhere. Could you give me some glues or =
instructions as for why it is doing this and how to make my FREEBSD boot =
correctly.

Thanks

Xiang
