Phil you need to post more info about the error. Do this. When the FBSD boot process starts it will stop and issue message to hit enter to continue or any other key for command prompt. Hit space bare to go into command line. On command line enter command boot -v the -v option will generate verbose messages (IE long winded messages about boot process). When system hangs hit keyboard scroll lock key to freeze buffer and them use up arrow to scroll boot messages on screen looking for message that may give you a pointer as to what is the problem. Post that boot log here so people have something to look at to help you. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Philip J. Koenig Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2001 10:15 AM To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 4.4-Release install hangs I have a system here I'm trying to install 4.4-Release on, and it keeps hanging during the initial boot at the same place - right after it probes the serial/parallel ports. Can someone tell me what piece of hardware is likely the problem here? Must be something it's probing? This is an ASUS P2-L97 (440 LX chipset) board with embedded Adaptec SCSI. (Booting from an ATAPI CDROM) Thanks, Phil -- Philip J.
