Hello, all! I am trying to install FreeBSD 4.9 on an AlphaServer 1000a/400/256Mb. It gets through the initial configuration just fine, however, upon getting = to the place where it attempts to download from FTP...it downloads the = first 10 blocks of the distribution then stops. The error message on VTY2 says "Attempt to write beyond the end of the drive." I have a Mylex 960 card with two 9Gb drives attached, partitioned 6Gb data/1Gb swap/1Gb temp. Anyone else experience this problem? The system works fine under Red Hat. I tried to load FBSD 5.2.1, but I get a machine bugcheck and it halts = the system. But that is for another day. Thanks, Michael Gollihue
