I just received FreeBSD 2.2.2 on CD-ROM. When I tried to install it, it would not recognize my cd-rom at all, although it appeared that the driver was in fact there. I am new to FreeBSD and UNIX so I have probably done something wrong. I have read and re-read all documentation that I could find and I was unable to figure out just what is going on. Also, I began a dos installation and it seemed to go fine until it reached the ports collection. It then gave me the message that the "File system is full. Unable to write to disk". After that, it installed XFree86 without a hitch. It did not load the boot manager like it was supposed to, and it was supposedly missing xf32-xc.tgz off the cd-rom. Did I get a bogus disk?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Vince Rodriguez
