I got following error during installation of FreeBSD from 2.1.0-Stable CD-ROM: "Write failure on transfer! (wrote -1 bytes of 10240 bytes)" Error occured about 10 minutes after it started transfer. I am using IDE/ATAPI Smasung CD-ROM drive with IDE Seagate HD (HD Geometry: 1024/16/63). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time. -- Yan
