<DIV></DIV>&gt;Right from the "INSTALL.TXT" file of 3.3-RELEASE: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;"FreeBSD requires a 386 or better processor to run (sorry, there is no 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;support for '286 processors) and at least 5 megs of RAM to install 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;and 4 megs of RAM to run. You will need at least 100MB of free hard 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;drive space for the most minimal installation."

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Hi, 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; I am new to free bsd and I am trying to boot a 486DX with 4mb RAM 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; machine with floppies for FreeBSD3.3. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;So you need to get more ram. At least for the install. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; It loads the kernel and then asks for the second floppy and then 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; simply gets stuck at boot prompt with message No /kernel found. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Also you might want to remake the images of the floppies, i.e. kern.flp 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&amp; mfsroot.flp. Also reformat your floppies first then write the images 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;over. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; default: 0:fd(0,a)/kernel 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; boot: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Am I missing something here? 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Thanks in advance. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
