I made a usb installer from FreeBSD-12.0-STABLE-amd64-20190510-r347397-memst= ick.img When I set my FreeBSD 11.2 machine to boot from the usb, it does so and I ge= t a normal looking boot menu, 1 for multi user, 2 for single user, etc. Whichever option I choose, 1 or 2, the machine starts to boot, but then rebo= ots before completion. If there is an error, it passes too quickly for me to= see it. At no point do I get an installer or a login prompt. The hardware is a 3rd? generation i5 and 8GB of RAM. Possibly a Dell machine= ? Should I instead be using the 12.0-RELEASE image? The machine does not have an optical drive in it. --=20 My main job is trying to come up with new and innovative and effective ways t= o reject even more mail. I'm up to about 97% now.=
