Hello, I have a copy of Free BSD 2.1 which I am trying to install onto a 75Mhz Pentium. I made the boot disk but the machine halts before the installation menu is reached - a few lines from the boot sequence appear on the screen before it goes blank. Ive tried the boot disk on various machines in the office and found that the machines with the Microid Research BIOS fail to boot; those with American Megetrends BIOS go to the installation menu O.K. Is there a get around for this ?? The full details on my system are : Intel Triton 75Mhz Pentium Microid Research BIOS V3.12 (ELONEX BIOS 2.02) Elonex are the UK assembler who source our PCs. I'd appreciate any input from you on this. Thanks Mark Hudson
