Cannot provide this since I cannot get the system kernal to boot after installation
>Description:
I install FreeBSD from a CDROM from walnut creek. I choise novice since This is my first time installing it. I choses allthe defaults for the system disk and allow it to configure the system slices. After installation I try to boot the system and get the following error message;


Sc0: VGA color <16 virtual consoles, flags= 0x0>

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

fault virtual address 		= 0xefc00000
fault code				= supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer		= 0x18:0xf01eee33
stack pointer 			= 0x10:0xefbffefc
frame pointer			= 0x10:0xefbffefc
code segment			= base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type0x1b
					= DPL 0,pres 1,def 32, gran 1
processor flags			= interupt enabled, resume , IOPL=0
current process			= 0()
interupt mask 			= net tty bio cam
panic: page fault


I am running a pentium 75, 64MB ram with a 4 gig SCSI and cdrom + floppy drive, it is an
adaptec controller and a 3com ehternet card. it is a system the once had 2.2.1 freebsd on it. then a windows NT system and now I an wiping the disk and place 2.2.8 on it. The other freebsd installs were done with someone experienced. This is my first installation of FreeBSD.



>How-To-Repeat:
Thats easy i try to boot the system. I have gone through the userconfig of the kernel with little results. I have tried every combination i know to get the kernal to boot. I tried removing all the devices to see if that would help but it didn't.
