I am considering installing FreeBSD on a Dell Pro200 (pentium pro 200) that I have from work (to be used for windoze stuff). I first need to put in another disk, so in the meantime I tried booting up the install floppy, just to see if there would be any peculiarities. well.. on boot, I noticed the message: Warning! Defective Early Revision Adapter it scrolled off the screen, so I am not even sure where it came. what does this mean? -eric
