Date: 15 Jun 1995 00:05:55 GMT Organization: Information & Media Technologies, University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee Lines: 34 Distribution: na Message-ID: <3rnth3$avf@uwm.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: 129.89.169.1 hello, I'm having some problem on installing Freebsd on my pc(pentinum 90). I have two hard disk drives. (1.2G and 540 M) After the booting of - Freebsd boot diskette -, I did "slicing" as 300M for DOS and 996 M for Freebsd. Then I typed - (D)isklabel - menu, then the installation process brings me to the DISKLABEL editor like this. Part Start End Blocks MB Type Action Mountpoint a unused b unused c # unused d # unused e unused f unused g unused h unused the type of - h - should be MSDOS, but it didn't set for MSDOS. If I set - h - , then it set as 4.2BSD. (Now, I have DOS on my PC) Second, after I assign and mount all (-h- as 4.2 BSD), and proceed the installation process, I remove the diskette and reboot.(as following the screen prompt). The system keeps looking kernel, and doesn't boot up. I'm kind of novice of Freebsd, and REALLY need somebody's help!!! Please answer me to the following address: lim@alumni.cs.uwm.edu Thank you...
