Hello Im new to this list and new to freebsd, actually i havent installed it yet. The thing is i have to use PXE to install it, and there is NO floppy,NO cdrom or VGA on this computer. It's a motorola 5360. Its capable of pxebooting, (im from the linux world) hda is a 16M cf Hdb is a standard harddrive. User interface is a serialport, running @38400,8n1. NIC is a eepro100 The computer is currently installed with linux, but since i have many computers like this one, i thought about migrating into freebsd. i saw this page http://matt.simerson.net/computing/freebsd.netboot.shtml it gave me some hints, but since i dont have freebsd on the install server i have problem. install server i also a cpn5360 and has debian running as OS. So when i came to the part when i need a kernel... im stuck. The loader seem's to be up and runnig, because it tells med it needs a kernel. Please help :) Lars ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------- "I'm on the path, he thought. I don't have to know where it leads.
