Synopsis: DOS partition installation problem. State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: rnordier State-Changed-When: Tue Jan 12 13:47:28 PST 1999 State-Changed-Why: It isn't completely clear whether you are having problems with setup.exe, which runs on DOS, or with the FreeBSD sysinstall program, which starts from the boot floppy. However, the setup.exe program is obsolete, and you should rather copy the distribution files into the required directories off 3.0-RELEASE by hand. The .mtree files are not used in DOS install, so the truncation should not matter. The files you mention are sufficient for a minimal install, provided you also have a boot floppy. If you are still having problems with this, please ask for help on the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list. -- Robert Nordier To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
