To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: cdrom filename problem Content-Type: text/plain Date: Mon, 05 Oct 1998 06:37:18 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, i am having a slight problem w/ my non-official distribution cd. I read the docs on it and it seems that the files are all supposes to have lower-case names, like floppies, ports, etc.. well mine are all FLOPPIES, PORTS, and such... is there a way I can change the filenames? i thought that perhaps i could simply ftp a minimal install, and install the rest of the stuff by hand, but that won't work either. for one, FreeBSD thinks my printer is a modem and it also thinks cua0 (COM1 for DOS peeps) is my modem ppp0 device. well my modem is on cua2 (COM 3) and i cant figure out how to change that setting in the bootdisk. i am also on a dynamic IP and i dont have another computer so I cant gateway it... well, thanks for your help. -kraise ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
