OK. I'm trying to setup FreeBSD. After going through two computers which both locked up on boot, I finally found one that would let me boot. I'm trying to install over my direct Ethernet connection (plugged into the wall, etc). But when I choose the FTP method, it asks me for PLIP/SLIP/PPP, which I do not have, and does not allow me to choose the Ethernet connection. what am I doing wrong here? The documentation I've read seems to indicate this should be possible. Thanks, Aveek BTW: I'm a Linux admin for several years now, but decided to try FreeBSD after seeing so many major ISPs put their stable servers on it. --- WWW: datta.ml.org, www.ml.org, www.distance.cmu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
