I don't have any probelm to boot up and download the OS from ftp.freebsd.org, but it will not boot after everything is done; it shows nothing except error message "Read error" on the left top of the screen. Looks like it could not find boot sector. It confuses me since I did not encounter any problem during the installation. Any idea what is wrong? Thanks in advance.
