Now it finds the kernel, starts checking everything and then it stops straight after it prompts you to choose a shell I am following the instructions to install MacBSD to the letter and have got somewhere but I stop at the Shell request prompt something of the lines of "Enter full path of shell or hit return for sh" If I hit return, it stops If I type in a path of a shell. f.e. /bin/sh or /bin/csh, a small fragment of a line appears at the top of the screen which I can't read and the system is frozen again. Can anyone help me out? Or point me to a mailing list (or both) my System is as follows Mac IIci 8MB/250+122HD with ethernet card. Thanks in advance -- -- Neil
