	Hello. Thanks for the replys I have recieved via Email and that 
message that Benjamin sent me.. I now have the bindist and the floppies 
rawrited. Now, I have booted ewith the boot disk and then I set up my 
system etc... for FreeBSD. I then put in the file system disk. After 
copying BASIC stuff over, I rebotted to copy the kernel. After it asked 
for the filesystem disk, I left the bootdisk in (Like I was supposed to 
do). 

Then, it went through the list of stuff (auto-detection etc..) And, it 
got all the way down to Changing root to fd0a or something fd0*. Now, at 
this point, it stoped working. Any ideas?
