hi! 

i just bought the Complete FreeBSD from walnut creek ($49 4 cd set). 
having a problem, FreeBSD detects all my hardware, even 
the ones ive had trouble with before (scsi), though i get this weird
error right before installation, that actually prevents me from 
installation.. i stick in the cd and run the install.exe. after 
selecting my packages, i choose to install them. right then i get an 
error that says something like..

'this cdrom is an audio cd, not a freebsd release cd'

then i cannot install anything. all i can hit is 'ok', then i get a 
retry/fail kinda menu. i've had no progress whatsoever, *any* 
suggestions you might have on this issue, please tell me, this damned 
thing has been bugging me all month, i'm really in need of your 
professional help! thanks.

thomas
