>Description:
just as the subject says:
i tried to install FBSD 4.1-REL via FTP and the two floppies.
System: dual i686 450mhz / 512MB / SCSI HD / i Etherexpresswhatever
everything went just fine just to the point where, after the reboot, 
bootloader should start loading the kernel. it failed.
oh i should say: it has definetly not been a bios setup problem since i installed 
OpenBSD thereafter and it worked. (though i found out later that OBSD does not
yet support SMP *sigh*)
>How-To-Repeat:
install 4.1-REL via FTP on a SCSI HD ?
