Hi, I'm new to freebsd, could someone please help me
in installing freebsd verson 5 or tell where i could
get help. I follow the installation's guide in the
www.freebsd.org website, but i still have problems, in
some of the steps in the installation guide. 

PROBLEMS:
Step1: when I boot my computer with the cd-rom, I     
couldn't get to the kernel configuration menu.

I even try the following command at prompt:  BOOT DKAO
-FLAG " -FILE " 
(I also try this without cd boot up. with "boot: "
prompt)
but I get message of: DKAO not find

When skip the kernel configuration step install
standard installation.
I have: "port can't assigned " error message in "
vitty"

please let me where I could find some help. thank!
