Greetings,

I am setting up free bsd on a pentium p133, 64meg edo ram, adaptec 3940UW 
controller, seagate baracuda UW, trident video.
I have gotten my system to boot, however, once it gets to the last 
filesystem fsck, it just hangs, and I cannot break out.
I have tried breaking into shell before this happens, and I can mount all 
the filesystems without a problem. Once I exit the shell, and go back into
the boot process, it just hangs as well.
Has anyone had this problem, or have any ideas on how to fix?


Thanks,

Db
