I'm installing the Walnut Creek CD (Janurary 96) of FreeBSD 2.1 on a Gateway P60 that has a Mercury PCI motherboard. I create a boot floppy and boot -c. Config my Mitsumi CDROM and my network cards (no conflicts) then continue the boot. The CD and network cards appear to be detected but fail to function (can't find CD for install, fail on network install). I tried setting cache to off and I tried with and without ISA bus enhanced timing (appears to be PCI/ISA problem to me). Anyone have a hint? If so, please email me at DanaNowell@corsof.com. Oh, BTW, I've tried this with the CD and without network cards and I've tried it without the CD and with network cards (including with a single network card). Machine was working as a Windoze PC with the same hardware previous to this. Current config: PCI STB vid card, ISA 3C503, ISA Intel Express, ISA Mitsumi card, and onboard EIDE, 2 serial, parallel.
