Yeah, someone else told me about that and I fixed that. Now I'm trying
1.1.5R and there is a new problem. FreeBSD can't find my DOS partition...
It says that my partition table is corrupt or missing. It's there and my
MS-DOS 6 fdisk and my Buslogic version of fdisk have no problems.
I fear I may have caused the problem when I went screwed around too much
with the install.
