I have a 60MB DOS partition and 174MB FreeBSD partition on my hard drive. I also have a Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM drive with Acculogic SCSI controller. However, FreeBSD does not recognize the SCSI drive. I could not install FreeBSD from the CD-ROM. Therefore, I copied the /bindist files first to the DOS partition and installed the files from it. Now the system is up and I want to repeat the /bindist process to install the rest of the OS, but I could not get the installation menu where the componets are list. I would appreciate your help. Thank you.
