I recently purchased the "FreeBSD Handbook" that comes with
FreeBSD 4.1 from Walnut Creek CDROM. I installed it according
to the instructions and configured X-windows, etc. Everything
seemed to go Ok but when I tried to reboot, it started to load the
kernel, I got the copyright message and then the following error
message:
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0xbf57e4c
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
. . .
The machine then stops.
I am using a Dell 233 MHz Pentium with 128 MB of RAM. I installed
FreeBSD in a primary partition on the last 2 GB of a 4.3 GB Western
Digital hard disk (disk no. 3).
Can anyone help with this?
