I just installed 5.2.1 via download onto cdr media. I left about 10 gigs open for freebsd, and left 9 for my win2000. the dual boot works fine on my dell laptop, however when i go to load freebsd 5.2.1, i cant get into a graphical interface. Instead it stays in a "dos-like" interface with commands only. It recognizes my user name and the admin name of root, but there is only a command line and no background. i installed cd1, i have a boot only and a second disc which i have not installed. please point me in the correct direction james heck _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement?
