I am sorry to bother you all, as I am sure you are busy, but I have a problem after having tried to install FreeBSD 2.0 on my Toshiba 4800 (486/75) laptop. The installation seemed to go well, but I can't reboot. The boot choices that come up look like this: 1-DOS -------sorry f1-DOS f2-FreeBSD Default F? Then no matter what I type I either get the same message again (if I hit f1 or f2) or get a slightley changed version, if I his f3 it says default F3, for example. There is no progression past this screen. I can boot from floppies, and I have tried everythink I can think of, from re- installing FreeBSD, to reformatting it's partition, numerous times, to re-installing DOS on that partition, nothing reclaims the MBR. I would love to make FreeBSD work, but even more than that, I would love to have my computer back, so if you all can help me I would appreciate it. (I will have to reformat the hard disk if I don't hear from you soon :( ) Thanks very much Kwin Kramer
