I've tried making a boot disk from the boot.flp on the cdrom, and also booting to dos and running install.bat from the cd-rom. symptoms: freebsd probes all of my hardware, and then gets a double fault. I also tried booting off of a 2.2.1 cdrom (which is also what is currently on my machine) and could get into sysinstall normally. my hardware: AMD 486-133 48MB RAM AHA 2842 VLB SCSI controller 500MB and 1GB hard drives SCSI CD-ROM BOCA 4-port serial card no-name ide/serial/parallel card 3COM 3c509 ethernet card #9 GXE 64 VLB video card Anybody have ideas on what would cause this? --eric lakin
