The following reply was made to PR kern/13630; it has been noted by GNATS. From: <wganz@texoma.net> To: <freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org>, <james-hunsaker@uiowa.edu> Cc: Subject: Re: kern/13630: system halts after npx0 detected on 3.2 install Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 07:50:04 -0600 I am trying to install FreeBSD3.4 on a Compaq Deskpro 575(16mg/400mgHD). The only difference from factory configuration is that I put a SCSI ZIP on it to load \FreeBSD \FreeBSD\bin \FreeBSD\floppies \FreeBSD\manpages \FreeBSD\packages Naturally packages was subset of the full CDROM. I am not interested in XWindows on it and a CLI with bash "is good enough" for my purposes. .:. the HD space limitations are not an acute problem but an annoyance. I ftp'd the latest 3.4 release since it was released after I got my 3.2 book so I am using the 3.2 book & the 3.4 errata & release notes from FreeBSD.org. Problem definition: Computer will boot & run Win3.1 without problem. Accesses ZIP drive & can copy to \FreeBSD desired files. .:. we know that basic hardware works Create kernel & mfsroot floppies & boot in that sequence to installation screen.
